  Printing problems in MLCAD
 
All, Has anyone had any trouble getting the model images to print out in MLCAD? I can print the parts list and header/footer just fine, but where the image would go, it is just printing out blank sheets. Please help! Jake (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I have much better luck having MLCad generate images instead of trying to print directly, then embedding the images (converted from BMP to something else, such as PNG) in some other document. A lot more work, but more precise control, and you (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I thought something like that is happening, since I know many people not having problems. Therefor I write some statistical information during printing into the mlcad log file beginning with the next version. In the mean time people could (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I had essentially the same problem and found the following fix; Select 'Printer Setup' in MLCAD Select 'Properties' Check 'Scale to Fit' Check 'Scale to fit paper in printer' Then about three 'OKs' I don't know about others but this seems to (...)

In lugnet.cad.mlcad, Larry Pieniazek writes: SNIP (...) This was written over a year ago and now MLCAD offers a line width setting. However, I noticed that enlarging the line width *only* thickens the lines which were already discernable in the (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) Just to close the loop here, I do not use MLCad image generation at all any more. I have switched to LDLite completely for rendering.
