I'm using AR-SAND as my hatch pattern at a scale of 1 on AutoCAD 2007. We do all our plotting using DWF's. The problem occurs during the dwf. If I use a.plt my hatch is on the drawing. We are using this hatch pattern for stucco. Is there a setting I'm missing to enable a a DWF to plot this particular hatch(one with all dots and no lines)? I have a lineweight of.2 with a screen value of 100 yet nothing shows up.

I have tried using different colors and line weights but still no difference. Is there a hatch anyone else is using for stucco that works? I've been unable to find any type of stucco hatch.

Thanks for any help, David. This sounds similar to an old problem with some plotter drivers where a workaround was to fudge points as very short lines. You may get a result by replacing AR-SAND with this AR-SAND1 where the points are now lines 0.1 units long: *AR-SAND1, random short line pattern 37.5, 0, 0, 28.5242, 39.8018, 0.1, -38.508, 0.1, -43.08, 0.1, -41.175 7.5, 0, 0, 53.9242, 65.2018, 0.1, -20.728, 0.1, -34.698, 0.1, -13.235 -32.5, -31.242, 0, 66.6344, 42.6212, 0.1, -12.6, 0.1, -45.62, 0.1, -59.59 -42.5, -31.242, 0, 41.2344, 68.0212, 0.1, -6.25, 0.1, -29.872, 0.1, -34.19 Caveat - I have not tried it in DWF.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Try the sand pattern and play with the scale. Also, put it on a layer, or force a color, that plots somewhat thick. The dot pattern won't work with a thin lineweight on most printers/plotters.

B2k greatest hits rarities. Note that this is a pressy generic pattern, and will look like a pretty smooth stucco finish.
