Increasing precision of DWF files

Issue

Solution

To increase the precision of the DWF files

1. Click File menu > Plot.
2. In the Plot dialog box, under Printer/Plotter, from the Name drop-down list, select DWF6 ePlot.pc3.
3. Click Properties.
4. In the Plotter Configuration Editor dialog box.
5. On the Device and Document Settings tab, under DWF6 ePlot.pc3 in the tree, select Custom Properties.
6. Under Access Custom Dialog, click Custom Properties.
7. In the DWF6 ePlot Properties dialog box, under Vector and Gradient Resolution (Dots per Inch):
• From the Vector Resolution drop-down list, select the desired value
• For a custom vector resolution, select Custom
• In the Custom Vector Resolution box, enter the desired resolution.
• You can leave the other DPI values as they are.
8. Click OK to return to the Plotter Configuration Editor.

Note: To change the resolution of a raster image, follow the same procedure but, in step 7, use the drop-down lists under Raster Image Resolution (Dots per Inch) instead.

Note: Higher resolution enables greater precision, but it also increases the file size.
