    Default Type in Plot and CAD Crashes

    I install SP2a on a computer. Now every time I try do anything dealing with plot it crashes. I can not even get in and modify a page setup. I looked at uninstalling the update but it will not allow me to. Any ideas?

    Give this a try...... it has worked for me in the past. Make sure everything is backed up though, just a word of advice.

    Have you tried modifying the page setup using the page setup manager?

    We have 3rd party app for plotting to PDF that is not on every computer. If someone applies a page setup using the plotter then someone who does not have that plotter tries to plot it crashes. We just use the page setup manger to change the current page setup and everything works fine.

    The Default Plotter bug still exists. We have changed all of our settings to 'Use Last Successful Plot' on all our installs to avoid this problem. This can be changed in Options-Plot Settings - Top Left Corner.
