Hello
I tried to print schematics, but the thickness is very thin !
Yes, I know that i can increase the thickness from View/Line Width, but if I increase from there:
1 - the component symbols will remain thin
2- the line width will be fat.
Do not tell me that I have to change the thickness to all symbols, because it would be absurd !
Comparing the DipTrace prints with those made with other similar software, those of DipTrace
have a very ugly appearance, and, above all, they are very difficult to read in detail.
Is there a solution that I missed?
Thank you for reading.

Schematic Print thickness is too thin!
My first Schematic print came out with hair-thin lines. It was useless, then after checking the menus I figured out the solution:
Load the schematics file
select all; CTRL-A
use the menu bar; Objects>Drawing Properties>Line Width>
here, a size is seen in the box. It was 0.12 in my drawing (too thin!!!). I changed it to 0.33 and hit enter.
then I printed the schematic using printer features (Inkjet printer!):
black ink only
best quality
and the results were very good.
The procedure can be modified; objects selected, different line thicknesses, printer settings etc.
The post was from 2017 and hopefully the problem has been solved already.
