using the same pen setting, i get different shades of gray.. anyone have an idea why?
I would suspect that this is due to the fact that each option (DWF and DWG) has it's own pc3 file. The DWF uses an AutoCAD supplied DWF6 ePlot.pc3 while your printer/plotter uses it's own individual PC3 file. The difference in the shades of gray could be caused by your plotters ability to handle graphics vs. the DWF's ability to better handle graphics. Check the options in both PC3 files and try to equal out the settings between the both of them. If that doesn't work you could copy a separate CTB/STB file and try to tweak it for your plotter to better represent the output of the DWF. Just a thought. Good Luck, Jeffrey K. Ries
