So if the most sagacious and prolific poster on the reflector has no
words of wisdom, I'll have to assume there really is no work-around.
Printing each page to PDF separately and merging them is pretty
unpalatable but maybe it'll work well for the two-pagers.
More importantly, though, it sounds like others have seen this; I hereby
request whomever is maintaining the Protel Wish List that "over-bar"
printing be FIXED at some point. I know that WYSIWYG is a little much to
ask of a CAD package, but even things like scaling text strings
differently based on zoom depth seem like obvious bugs.
Thanks for the feedback,
Drew
