Problem with LDE Print Preview?

[Donald Thomson]

I've attached 2 pictures of what I think is a problem with the LDE Print Preview feature.

You can see in the picture taken from inside the LDE that all the dimensions have their lines attached. But in the other picture, you can see in the Print Preview that there are lines missing from the dimensions.

This makes it look unprofessional when I have to supply line drawings to customers and suppliers.

Is this a known issue or something just specific to my machine and video drivers?

And yes, the actual printouts turn out just like the print preview, missing lines, etc.

Doesn't look professional.

LDE has always been too buggy to be of any real use for me other than verifying part measurements. For something like what you're trying to draw I'd just do it in Sketchup or Draftsight and have more control over the output. It would be great if Ecabinets would at least let you export 2d drawings to dxf.

For now you can try playing around with your print driver settings and see if that helps. I've used a program called Image Printer Pro to print from LDE before and it worked reasonably well. Then you could also print to Jpeg and insert into Autocad.
