Print organizer is very slow at printing cross section sheets (20+ seconds / sheet).
Originally thinking it was just because of a certain linestyle or settings I tried multiple combinations of options and linestyles (even turning off linestyles) and that did not solve the issue. Any idea why this could be happening?
Our cross section sheets do take longer to plot. In our case I have always considered this to be caused by the GRID we have on each cross section and the line style of the GRID. We have a pretty dense grid with a custom linestyle of dots. Each dot is actually a very short line. So the combination of a dense grid and the dot linestyle causes the plot of cross section to take longer in our case.

I tried your suggestions but my average print time is still about 24-25 seconds. The reason why I dont think its the title block is because we actually use the same block for PnP and XS sheets but with 1/2 the grid turned off (each line in the grid is on a seperate level) and in the case of using the block with PnP sheets the sheets print in an average of 3-5 seconds each. As far as linestyles are concerned the linestyles for the the grid are solid.
This is seriously slowing down our workflow because a 35 page set of XS takes almost 15 mins to print.
Thanks for any replies.
How were the cross sections drawn? Are they created by GeoPak which means that they're references? I've noticed a lot of times if I'm heavy on reference files print organizer will lag a bit.
