Autodesk, Inc., has released a plotter drivers update for AutoCAD
(R) 2000,
AutoCAD(R) Mechanical 2000, Mechanical Desktop(R)4, AutoCAD
Architectural
DesktopTM 2, AutoCAD Map(R)2000 and AutoCAD LT(R) 2000.

Note: The AutoCAD 2000 Plotting Update Patch is not required for
the domestic
or international versions of AutoCAD Land Development Desktop R2.
AutoCAD Land
Development Desktop R2 was released after the AutoCAD 2000 plotting
update,
therefore the update was included in the shipping version.

This update addresses several customer-reported issues and includes
two new HDI
(Heidi(R) Device Interface) plot drivers. These new HDI drivers add
support for
more than 30 different CalComp plotter models and the AutoCAD DXB
file format.
In a continuing effort to support Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 2000
Professional,
Autodesk has addressed the problems that disable AutoCAD 2000
plotting on
release candidate 2. Autodesk has also worked with its hardware
partners
Hewlett-Packard, Oce, and Xerox to address customer-reported
problems with each
plotter driver that shipped with AutoCAD 2000-based products.

Some of the issues that the Plotter Driver Update addresses are as
follows:
* Support for CalComp plotters
* Support for AutoCAD DXB file format
* Raster and Merge lines support for the HDI Hewlett Packard
LaserJet printer
driver
* For all HDI HP-GL/2 HDI drivers, support for A3, B4, and B5 paper
(including
supported Hewlett-Packard LaserJet models)
* Plotting from Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (RC2)
* Significantly improved performance of the Hewlett-Packard
DesignJet Windows
system printer driver under Windows 95/98
* For all drivers, improved quality for vector and OLE plotting
* Resolution of several issues with Hewlett-Packard pen plotters
* Resolution of crashes caused by certain Windows system printer
drivers
* Ability to use TXTQUALITY to control TrueType text quality
* Improved support for Hewlett-Packard 7600 plot devices
* HDI plotter drivers can now be updated directly from the
manufacturer.

This update is part of a continuing effort by Autodesk and its
partners to
provide customers with the highest quality support for peripheral
devices.

For complete details on the AutoCAD 2000 driver update, please
consult the
Plotter driver update readme information below.


PLOTTING UPDATE README
----------------------
The Plotting Update modifies hardcopy drivers and DLLs in Autodesk
(R) products
that use the new Heidi(R) hardcopy subsystem. These products
include
AutoCAD(R) 2000, AutoCAD(R) OEM 2000-based applications, AutoCAD(R)
Mechanical 2000, Mechanical Desktop(R) 4, AutoCAD Architectural
DesktopTM 2,
AutoCAD Map(R) 2000, and AutoCAD LT(R) 2000.

The Plotting Update is a self-extracting zip file. Its installer
runs
automatically.

The installer checks the registry to see which Autodesk products
are installed.
If you have more than one Autodesk product installed, you are asked
to select
the product you want to update. It is recommended that you update
all Autodesk
products.

PLOTTING UPDATE CONTENTS
------------------------

Optimized HP System Driver. This driver includes the following
enhancements:
- Plot file sizes are greatly reduced on Microsoft(R) Windows
95/98.
- Detaching and reattaching a PMP file no longer causes an error.
- Modified paper sizes display the correct units.

Add Plotter Wizard. The wizard now installs updated drivers. HIF
files are
now language independent.

Arc gaps. The arc gap problem is fixed in the generic HP-GL/2
driver and
in the Xerox and Oce drivers.

OLE object plot quality. Several OLE plot quality problems are
fixed. The
system path for OLE objects is restored to the Release 14 state.
OLE plot
quality on system printers has been improved for Landscape paper
sizes
because they can use the system path. Portrait paper sizes are
still
forced to the lower-quality raster path.

If you are plotting a monochrome OLE object such as a Microsoft
(R) Excel
workbook, reducing the right-click OLE object plot quality
to "Line Art"
may help improve the quality of objects plotted using the raster
plotting
mechanism. If you are using a driver that supports the raster
graphics
pane in the PC3 Editor, sliding the "Balance" slider to the right
also
improves the resolution of OLE objects that are plotted to the
raster path.

HP-GL long plots. HP-GL plotters can now handle long plots (The
driver
produces absolute coordinates instead of relative ones.)

HP-GL DraftPro and other old HP-GL devices. These devices can now
plot E size
sheets. (The driver produces absolute coordinates instead of
relative
ones.)

Microsoft(R) Windows 2000 plotting. This type of plotting is
enabled.

Random crashes with various Windows system drivers. Enhancements
have been
made to the GDI6.HDI driver to fix random crashes with various
Windows
system drivers.

HP LaserJet. The HP-GL/2 non-system HDI driver now has A3, B4, and
B5 paper
sizes. A new "100 shades of Gray" color depth choice is
available, and merge
control is enabled (only for this color depth). Raster plotting
problems
are now fixed.

HP 7600 series. Enhancements have been made to the HP-GL/2 non-
system HDI
driver to fix problems affecting the HP 7600 plotter series.

CalComp driver. A non-system driver supporting most CalComp
plotters has been
added.

DXB driver. A driver that plots to the Autodesk DXB file format has
been added.

COM port queries. AutoCAD no longer queries COM ports when
configuring a
plotter.

Version display. The General page of the PC3 Editor shows the
version number
of the DRC file in use. The version number appears in square
brackets
to the right of the driver version number.

True Type text quality. This responds to TXTQUALITY for all text
styles.

The configured paper size in PC3 files is now followed when new
layouts
are created.

HP ColorPro CAD error message. Users of the HP ColorPro CAD may
experience
an error "The media size is invalid" when they select a paper
size in
the Custom Properties dialog box and have this Plotting Update
installed.
If you receive this error message, you are probably using version
4.20
of the HP system driver, and you need to download the latest
driver
from the Hewlett-Packard web site. Version 4.22 or later of the HP
system driver fixes this problem.

Raster file driver. The raster file driver now can plot undithered
bitonal
(monochrome) raster files (such as CALS and TIFF), when a
monochrome
plot style table is used.

Note: the following fixes are applied only to AutoCAD 2000, AutoCAD
Architectural
Desktop 2, and Mechanical Desktop 4. They do not apply to any other
products:

Pen plotters. Pen plotters now respond reliably to physical pen
assignments
made in Plot Style tables.

Virtual pen assignments. Virtual pen assignments are now respected.

Virtual pens on CalComp plotters. If you used virtual pens with a
CalComp
plotter in Release 14, you had to define just "pens" in your CDCL
file. With AutoCAD 2000, it is also necessary to define "colors"
because
they are used for area fills such as wide plines and True Type
text.

The following CalComp devices allow you to defined both colors
and pens
in CDCL: the TechJet Color GT, the GT/PS, the TechJet Designer,
the
68000 series EPPs, the Drawingmaster series, Solus 4, and
Econografix.

The following CalComp plotters only allow you to define colors at
the
plotter's control panel: the EconoPro, the TechJet Designer 720,
and
the TechJet color. If you have one of these plotters, don't try
to define
colors using software, because the color definitions will be
ignored by
the plotter.

A Microsoft(R) Word document, CALCOMP_VIRTUAL_PENS.DOC, is in the
driver
directory where the CalComp HDI driver is installed. The document
explains how to define colors in software, using CDCL.

The following is a brief summary of the CALCOMP_VIRTUAL_PENS
document.

You must create a color (RGB_COLOR) for each pen you define.
First
define the color, and then define a pen (COLOR_PEN) mapped to the
color
you just defined.

RGB_COLOR(color#, R, G, B)
Color# Same as physical pen number
R Red value 0-100 percent saturation
G Green value 0-100 percent saturation
B Blue value 0-100 percent saturation

COLOR_PEN(pen#, width, color#, line type)
Pen# Virtual pen number used by AutoCAD
Width Width of pen in plotter units (pixels);
for example, for a 400 DPI raster plotter
a 2mm line is 31 plotter units
(2/25.4)*400 = 31
Color# Color number to map to, as defined above
Line type MAJOR, FLAT, ROUNDED or SQUARE

The following is an example CDCL file.

&&&&CALCOMP DEVICE CONTROL
* Universal PIN number
USER_PIN(8378)
* Color 1 is RED
RGB_COLOR(1, 100, 0, 0)
* Pen 1 is mapped to color 1, 4 pixels wide, rounded end
COLOR_PEN(1, 4, 1, ROUNDED)
* Color 2 is Yellow
RGB_COLOR(2, 100, 100, 0)
* Pen 2 is mapped to color 2, 31 pixels wide, major end
COLOR_PEN(2, 31, 2, MAJOR)
* Color 3 is a 25% gray
RGB_COLOR(3, 25, 25, 25)
* Pen 3 is mapped to color 3, 10 pixels wide, flag end
COLOR_PEN(3, 10, 3, FLAT)
^^^^END OF FILE

Other possibilities are available. For example, some CalComp
devices support
PAT_COLOR(ALL,255,0,0,0) to set all pens to black, instead of using
RGB_COLOR
to set each pen's color. Please refer to your CalComp CDCL manual.
