Kbird1 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I haven't heard of that happening before , but It would be best to Post your Plan file so someone can look at it and see if it happened for them too. It is also recommend to fill in your Forum Signature ( see mine below for how in blue ) especially in this case as the issue maybe OS or Hardware related , we also don't know what version you are using.

kirbywhitetail Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 I got the info you were wanting ( I think), plus I hope I got the plan that prints upside down on dimensions. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks BillI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbird1 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Are you Printing to Microsoft's Windows 10 PDF Printer? I don't think X5 had the Print to PDF like X9 or X10? I Use the free BullZip PDF Printer instead and have found it pretty Good...No Ads and no Adware like CutePDF and some others tag onto the Download sometimes. They also have a Free PDF reader , PDF Studio , which allows merging etc and a few other basic features. http://www.bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php http://www.bullzip.com/products/stu/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbywhitetail Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 hey guys here is a picture of what my prints look like. all i am doing is making copy to send to different subs. these are not PDF prints. Just seem strange that it only does it on my main level and not the basement. I really do appreciate your guys help and sorry to be a pain in the --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I would Try Printing to PDF at 1/8 Scale , ( current view is not to scale- so maybe no good for Subs) then email the PDF to your Subs if Good. Not sure why it would only happen on one floor but the only other thing I can think of is the is an option to Rotate Text with the Plan, so if something is screwy with the Rotate Plan check box in the Text Defaults somewhere perhaps it might effect this?
