I know AutoDesk wants everything platted thru Layout (Paper Space) but, I have a need to plot from model space. I use a HP DesignJet to plot blowups (EXACT SCALE) to either matte or clear film. Up until release 2005 I have had no problems doing this. Since I have upgraded to 2005 I have the following problem.

Every once in while ( I have not been able to pin point exactly when or how this happens) The plotted scale factor ( ie, 31.25:1) does not plot correctly. When this occurs I try to change the scale factor but it doesn't correct the problem.

I'm not sure if this is a driver issue or a bug in 2005 & 2006.

Has anybody else had a similar problem?

Does anybody know of fix for this?

Is there a system variable that might be at fault?

Thanks for your help,

Steve
