Problem with plotter

Post by Pavel D. »

Hi all! Sorry for my English (google.translate :wink: ).

I noticed that the new version of the program does not print correctly on the HP plotter (HP Designjet T770 44in HPGL2). The problem is this: there is a pdf document. There are three pages of A4, A3 and A1. The program in the preview (at right) shows the correct layout pages (paper size and orientation - checkbox "Auto-size paper" is set). But when printed on a plotter image is inverted and output to the wrong paper size. Photo attach.
On older version (2.5.210), everything works perfectly! Tested on several computers in the company.
Image
I repeat: all versions of the programs show a preview of the print correctly. But only v.210 prints the version as shown in the preview. New versions of print is not true.

Need help, solution. Any ideas?

Hello Pavel D.,

Welcome to our forums. Can you please try to download and install the Viewer's successor - the PDF XChange Editor:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product ... nge-editor
And let us know if it prints correctly to your device?

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Pavel D.,

Do you have the "Auto Rotate Page on Paper" checkbox turned on or off?

Stefan

Hello Pavel,

For the moment please set it manually, and I will ask our devs to check what further improvements we can make - with plotters and an "indefinitely" long piece of paper in one of the directions settings are a bit more complicated than with normal printers with fixed paper sizes.

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Pavel,

Open this in Internet Explorer:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/history ... istory.xml
And you should see links for each of the older Viewer Builds.

Ohh! Thats amasing! For an accurate understanding of the problem, I deleted the both version (5 and last 2x) and install the version number 210. The result on the face. Thank you!

So can we close this issue Pavel ?
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.
