    Hello everyone,

    When I plot directly to the Plotter (OCE9400) following Code is working correct:

    ThisDrawing.Plot.NumberOfCopies = 3 ThisDrawing.Plot.PlotToDevice pc3file

    But when I want to plot to File:

    ThisDrawing.Plot.NumberOfCopies = 3
    ThisDrawing.Plot.PlotToFile TmpPLName, pc3file

    The Plotfile Header does not contain the Numberofcopies info:
    BEGMF "HDI HP-GL/2 9400-II Driver (@)Copyright 1998";
    MFVERSION 1;
    MFDESC 'Oce RCF, Version=2.0, Type=Header, Unit=Metric';
    APPLDATA 002 "CO=1";

    The last row means the number of copies.
    I hope anyone has an idea of how to solve this problem without opening the finished plotfile binary and changing the header.
