I am using LT2009 on Vista plotting to a Xerox 510.

No matter what the IF setting is 0 or 2 parts of the frame still plot.
They do not plot when using cutePDF writer
What setting in the .pc3 file if any will get rid of the lines?

Also DWG to PDF.pc3 plots too dark. allegedly this was fixed with SP1 for LT2009. Any ideas?

KateDavis,

is the plotpreview ok?
Can you clip the image with LT? Try that, it could be a workaround (_imageclip).

I'm not sure if you have the MAP menubar in 2009LT but I know it exists in the full versions of cad. In the MAP menubar go to IMAGE-Toggle Frames. Or if you have raster Image they have toggle frames on/off in that as well. Then only other option woulb be to put them on seperate layers and freeze the layer.
 
Here is a detour:
To insert images on a single layer. Open properties->general, the color of the frame is set bylayer; open the layer manager and set the layer color to white or the same color as the image's border.
 
You have to turn the imageframe varible off. At the command prompt (I work on 2004 so I hope the command prompt still exists in 2009), type imageframe, and turn it off.

Keep in mind, with imageframe off, you cannot select the image to move it around or change its properties. To do that, turn imageframe back on.
