The E in the circle is in the Paper Space - copied thru from the Grids in the model. I have then clipped the model with non-printable rectangle. I have also tried clipping using a fence and got the same result.

if the ref is off why can I see the Circle E? is the clip boundary dashed line in the ref file that is being clipped and is it a polygon not a complex string or 4 lines.. if you draw a fence manually and tell cad to clip the ref by active fence does it work as expected? are you sure its not clip mask instead of clip boundary.. done that myself a few times

Just tested printing directly to the printer and it still prints. I have a feeling that it is a setting with the configuration of Inroads - but I cant for the life of me figure where.

I think the problem might be the windows pdf driver. Try using the Bentley delivered pdf printer or an alternative like pdf creator.

This is a DGN - with and without a DWG Xref - it is always there.

This is using the windows PDF driver and standard printer as well as the print organizer.

I am using:

Power Inroads - 08.11.09.878

Thanks for the response - apologies for the later play I have been away.

Is this a DWG file or a DGN? What version of the software are you using? Is this with Print Organizer, or just the regular Print dialog?
