I brought this up on another thread but reposting. I have a gradient on a background, but the gradient repeats itself when I print a .jpg
How can this be fixed?
I saw something like this in the Mac WIP a while back.
Can you please post the file so we can try it here?
Also, EXACTLY, what commands are you running and how are you running them?
Thanks
BackgroundExample.3dm (1.0 MB) Sorry, John I dropped the ball on this post but want to still work it out.
Here is the file for the cabinet.
You can see that I have a layout. In my display settings, it is a ghosted view the background is set to a gradient.
The display settings I am using are attached, too.

I found a pattern. If I print as an image and set as a web graphics or draft quality I get the proper gradient background. But when I try to set as a normal print quality (200 dpi), the gradient problem emerges, repeating the gradient. If I go up to 600 dpi, the gradient gets repeated a lot. I hope this helps solve the problem.
Draft quality or web graphics quality:
Set to normal print quality
Set to 600 dpi
Looks like the background is a bitmap which is created based on the printed window height at 100 dpi, and the background bitmap is tiled when the printed window height is increased by increasing the dpi.
Is this finally resolved in v8? I cant finish my project because pdfs look terrible even though print preview looks ok.
Hi Ivan -
There is no bug report mentioned in this thread, but it sounds like RH-20508 Printing PDF or Image file repeats gradient background
This one is still open.

i can see it is in progress. hopefully soon enough this will be gone.
