Dave, I get the plot size message even when plotting the extents of a drawing that I KNOW isn't too big. This happens with EVERY plot and the calculated plot size is almost an inch larger than the actual size. Exactly what information does AutoCad get from the plotter? HP plotters have a DIP switch that changes the minimum margin sizes If the plotter is only returning the paper size it would not take into account the setting of this switch. If AutoCad always assumed the wide minimum margin setting (which is how the plotter is shipped) then the message would be generated if the drawing were sized for the narrow margin setting. This is just a minor annoyance but I would like to fix it if possible because I'd like to know if I'm really exceeding the plot limits. Ray
