I should have tested a pen on the magnetic card first, before turning on the plotter. It was fun anyway ;-)

Jürgen,

there are pens for paper and there are pens for transparency film.
Maybe the latter are better suited for this purpose?

I bet that the cards in questions were plotted - the character set is characteristic.

Martin

I've tried both types of pens, no luck. Maybe there are indeed pens that work, but those I own don't :-(
