Hello all,
Need a little help with printing drawings. It seems every time I try to print one of my drawings with an excel sheet inserted into it the Catia session terminates unexpectedly. Anybody aware of this and what might fix it? Is it have anything to do with how I'm inserting it? I'm not leaving it linked to an external file when inserting it. It doesn't seem to be consistent though. Sometimes I'm able to print it and sometimes not. What gives?

TY

If CATDUAV5 can't fix this error, you can try to save as PDF file and then print the PDF.

Fernando,

Yea that's how I ended up printing it yesterday. What's weird is the fact that right after printing to pdf file I went right back and printed it again and although it generated the pdf just fine just a single step prior to that it still terminated when attempting to print it. If I remove the excel sheet from the drawing it prints every time just fine. I've checked to make sure the print drivers are up to date which they are and also the problem reproduces itself on two different machines at exactly the same point (after hitting ok from the 'print' dialog box).
