Thread: Plotting with OLE

    Plotting with OLE

    Running Land Desktop 2005 and printing to a HP 1055CM plotter.

    I've got a drawing that has OLE objects (a few Word documents and Excel
    spreadsheets) in my layout tab. I'm getting mixed and undesirable results
    with my plot - some of the OLE objects are printing fine, some aren't
    printing at all, and one is printing as if it had a wipeout over part of it.
    Has anyone ever experienced this, and what did you do to fix it? All my
    drivers are up-to-date. I'm on a Windows 2000 computer. Any suggestions?

    What are your plot settings for the OLE objects set to? Right-click over
    each and find out, perhaps they are looking for application versions that
    you do not have.

    Thanks Dean - that's the first thing I checked. The spreadsheets are
    calling to Excel and the documents are calling to Word. They're all
    linked, and set to high graphics plot quality.

    Have you considered not having the apps print them, but AutoCAD? Set to
    lineart for the Excel sheets and test.
