Printing line weight issues
Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2019 8:52 pm
Hi,
I recently purchased QCAD, running version 3.22.1.0 on ubuntu 18.04. All of my files so far were created in draftsight.
When printing, the lineweights are too thin. Attached is the file I've spent the most time troubleshooting, and in image of the print.
Most of the layers are set to the default lineweight, and changing the drawing preferences/linetype scale from 0.5 to 1 to 5 didn't make a difference. The layer 'cable' seems to print close to what I should expect. I actually had to manually lower the lineweight for this layer when I loaded it in qcad the first time, it imported way to wide. The title block inside line also prints fine, and I never had to modify it.
Is there a setting I'm missing? I'm guessing I could manually increase each layer's line width, but it seems there should be a way to do this automagically.
Thanks,
Phill
