I have a complex site drawing of a hotel that that has been printing perfectly for months. Then, about 2 versions ago, the drawing could only be printed if I exploded the whole thing. Only a sparse number of lines come out at all. However, the drawing previews correctly.
 
This has been the only way to continue working the last week and half but I need to fix this problem, especially because I need to issue this drawing to the contractors and the clients.
 
This is a serious set-back for this particular drawing as it is made up a number of different blocks which are all rotated at different angles and some have blocks within blocks. I also have large hatch areas, which are sometimes within organic boundaries.
 
Does anyone know what could possibly resolve this problem? Short of having to redraw the whole thing - which is actually not an option. How can I find the problem object which is only resolved by exploding it?

We found the problem! A 'wipe out' had crept in from of everything else. So I'm sorry for any one else who might have had this problem, but who doesn't use wipeouts because the solution could not be found.
