I searched and didn't find this problem discussed in the last couple years: I have wipeout boxes in paperspace. They mask the modelspace itmes behind certain text and other annotations created in paperspace. On sacreen, the wipeouts properly mask what is in modelspace behind. However, when plotting the layout, with "Plot Paperspace Last" box unchecked (per "Help" function suggestion), neither the preview nor the plot hides the modelspace items behind. Anyone have any suggestions? Using 2004. Thanks.
 
what type of plotter are you using?

Some don't support raster images inside autocad.

repost with some details

Intel P4 3.0 GHZ
512 DDRAM
Win 2000 Pro
Autocad 14, 2002 with EP 2.3.1
 
Hi,

what about Your variable sortents?
"Plot Paperspace Last" -> on

Thansk to all. It does appear the my plotter (TechJet 720) does not support the raster plotting, at least as it is presently configured. I did try to reset the "sortents" variable (it was 127), to no avail. I then tried to plot to an HP750, and the plot came out fine. Have to upgrade the plotter one of these days! Thanks, again, for the info.
