Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin):
Operating System: 6.1

Whenever using gray lines within a EPSP plot the lines are rastered printed, so that it looks terrible. Can anybody help me?

Hi schnackel:

So, you are saying that you have created a line plot. You set the line color to gray and this causes the line to print "blocky" (stair-stepped appearance)? But this doesn't happen if the line color is black?

Well, unfortunately, I have no idea what might cause this. I have to assume that this is one of those "printer driver problems" that occasionally crops up.

I can only suggest a couple of possible remedies:
  • If you have a second printer, try printing to that one.
  • You might open the Print dialog box (File:Print) and choose the Enable color as gray scale option (a WAG, but worth a try).

I have found the problem: The programm writes wrong EPS files. It creates for each layer a frame a moves then the corresponding picture into it. Thus, jitter effects appears.

Nevertheless, thank you, Mike.
