Lines and shapes not printing

**WSNetwork** · 20 January 2018, 08:02 AM

This is a known bug that existed before some versions. Some line profiles are also not printed, e.g. Propeller. This bug also affects other objects/shapes. Send a ticket to XARA.

I recall an issue about some lines not printing when importted in AI format, especially if they ere set at line width '0' or were really shapes with an outline of '0'

Propeller prints fine for me as a line... and so as far as I know do all the others

Without changing the printersetting to bitmap or antialiased bitmap the propeller-profile (and others) won't print for me.

that is interesting - I have a brother mfc-j6510dw printer currently connected and propeller prints just fine at 'normal' setting from designer pro v12.4

and it always has as far as I am aware

not in a position to test it on ver15 for sure, but maybe it is your printer that has an issue [as Phil indicated]

It's since version 15. Same bug some years ago in version 9 or 10. Was then fixed in one of the minor updates.

have to say - propeller still prints ok for me on normal setting from the trial v15...

I installed the UK-trial version 15 on a notebook. Printout also fails in normal-mode. It's a little bit curious.
I wait for the next update and will check again. As workaraoud I set the printer setting to bitmap when needed.

can you try it on another printer? - or try printing it to pdf maybe?

'microsoft print to PDF' is an option you can select as the printer in win10 - if it prints ok to a PDF then again it may be your printer or it's drivers...

Printing to 'Microsoft PDF' or 'Microsoft XPS' changes nothing. In version 12 all is OK.

works for me.. all I can say then is, ~~maybe it's the german version~~... you'll need to contact magix support

[edit - ok you tried the UK version trial.. missed that, sorry]

print to pdf from ver15.pdf
