    I have a model nearly 10" x 31" that I wish to plot at full scale from
    Layout named SwatchOnly to a 60" wide roll.
    My plotter is HP5500 using version 2005 on Win2k. Instead of full scale the
    Vertical distance of 9.65 became 3.23 on the paper. What am I doing wrong?

    For what it's worth, Pspace was On.
    Landscape orientation was correct.

    The following were my layout settings:

    Plot - SwatchOnly (name of layout)
    Printer/Plotter: HP djet 5500 60x10.pc3
    Paper size: Custom1: 31 x 9.7 in.
    Roll: 60" roll
    Quality: Maximum
    Where: LPT1
    What to Plot: Layout
    Plot offset: x: 0.0 y: 0.0
    Scale: 1:1
    Inch = 1
    Unit = 1
    Plot options checked
    Plot with plot styles
    Plot paperspace last
    Drawing orientation: Landscape
