Plot Driver or other config file to set Area and Rasterized

The Rasterized option is within the pltcfg file. Go to Base Properties Tab then Default Output Mode. Change to Prefer Non-Rasterized or Force Non-Rasterized. Force will not allow rasterized plotting at all.

As far as I am aware, if there is no fence placed in your file, the plot dialog will be set to View by default. Once a fence is placed the Area automatically changes to Fence. THere is a config variable that will change the plot area to fit the sheet when placing a new plot boundary. Look at MS_PLT_ENABLE_PRESERVE_SCALE under <Workspace <Configuration <Printing. There may be other variable there that can affect the plot area.

Thanks - I found both setting in the settings pull down. Just needed help on where to look. Much appreciated.
