Hey guys!
 
I have a dwg created by one of the EE's. Its a drawing in model space with a border and an embedded Excel spreadsheet in it.
 
First I simply hit plot, to pdf, ok the preview looks good, then when it printed, nothing. just a blank sheet...
 
Then I tried changing the excel to whit text and black background. Same result...
 
Matter of fact im not even seeing the title block...which means its something deeper than the just the OLE object?
 
What gives with this?

for me sound like your machine need to be upgraded!:)

sometimes when you have attached images, pdf and microsoft office docs and you have not good enought machine it will not plot
I had exactly same problem at my office. we use lot of google map images and we had to get super fast machine to plot(pdf) this kind of drawings
