I have an existing interior wall that is butting up against a new exterior wall.  Revit automatically wants to join them, even though one is existing and the other is new.  After editing the wall join and having the existing wall butt up against the new exterior wall, Revit shows the new exterior wall line as being on top of the existing wall line, which is correct.  When I plot is where I get the problem.  In my print preview, it shows and therefore plots this condition completely opposite.  It shows the existing wall as being on 'top' of the new exterior wall line.  It's like all I needed is a 'send to back' tool.  Any ideas?

Try plotting raster not vector. Vector is faster but raster seems to get better results.

Does it help if you right-click on the blue dot on the end of the new wall and set "disallow join".

No it doesn't.  I've tried and it then shows the walls as being unjoined and you see the end of the interior wall at the center of the exterior wall.
