    Plotting using a macro

    Hi,
    I'm currently running AutoCAD 2004 with a HPDJ550 A0 Colour plotter and HP LaserJet 5110. I have quick plot buttons set up that invoke a script to import page setups from a separate drawing held on the network. and print the current drawing. eg A1 MONO LANDSCAPE OTO

    However only the A1 plot button works. All the rest plot with a very large off set only giving me the top right hand quarter of the drawing. If i run through the command line and invoke the page setup the drawing prints fine. I have checked all my settings and to my knowledge they are correct. I have seen other posts regarding this issue but none have been resolved. This has been an ongoing problem. Any Idea's?

    I should also add that my A1 Plotting Macro Button Works fine. Also there is no difference between the A1 Macro Code/PageSetup except the pagesetup name and obvious things like PaperSize.
