Plotting to jpg using Acad lt 2002 educational version

I have a house drawn at full scale. I want to make a jpg of the drawing.
Ideally I'd like it at 18 pixels = 1' (1/4" = 1 ft where 1" = 72 pixels)
That makes my 29' house 7.25 inches wide, or 522 pixels.

I am creating the jpg using PublishToWebJPG.pc3 plotter configuration, with
the Sun Hi-Res (1600x1280) "paper" size. Plot Display, Center the plot,
using Plot styles.

I am changing the plot scale and it looks pretty good on Full Preview. (I
last tried it at 18 pixels=12 drawing units which should be 1/4" = 1 ft,
right?) Then when I actually *plot* the jpg is a 1600 x 1280 drawing as
expected but the image of my house is about 10 pixels x 10 pixels. No
matter what plot scale I choose, it makes the house 10 x 10.

I can do a screen copy into my graphics program, but then the scale is all
goofed up.

Any ideas for me?

Thanks

Hmmm tried making "paper" 522 pixels wide, and plotting Display Scaled to
Fit. It selected 1 pixel = 0.6372 drawing, so I thought maybe it liked the
left side of the equation as 1 instead of 18 (apparently it can't do math).
So I changed it to 1 = .666666 which would be the 18:12 scale I was looking
for. Worked much much better - apparently it was just a scale problem.

I guess the moral of the story is just don't make it think!

thanks,
