From searching "plot" & "vba" I found thiw. It was from this link (but he couldn't get the pen table to work). You could see if he was able to resolve that:

Hello all,

I am actually trying to export TIF using VBA. I was able to export a TIFF using the follewing lines :

Set pPlotInstructions = pPlotInstructionsMaker.Create("TIFF")

Set pSheetOwner = iModel

pPlotInstructions.PaperSize = pSheetOwner.GetSheetData(0).SheetSize

pPlotInstructions.UserScale = 1

pPlotInstructions.OutputQuality = 2

iModel.Export iPath & Mid(pFileName, 1, InStr(pFileName, ".")) & "tif", pPlotInstructions

Do not care about the filename... Everything works well except (there is always an "except"...) that I can not apply a pen table on my exported tif. I did not find anything in the plot instructions which could help me defining one.

I tried to enforce a default pen table, a default PCF, Nothing works. When I export manually everything goes well but using this macro, I lose my pens configuration...

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks...
