How to Print a Magic Sheet as a Plot?

Here is my magic sheet:

 

This thing is a useful tool to run live but I want to export it and use it as a share-able plot.  Is this possible?

I have used the offline editor to save this as a .png file on my desktop, but the resolution of the file does capture enough detail for the plot to be useful.  Is the Eos family software limited to the quality of this .png capture, or is there a way to get better resolution out of a shareable file?

I'm working backwards from my magic sheet and trying to avoid purchasing AutoCAD or VectorWorks.  Any tricks out there?

    Here's my trick. I START the magic sheet as a lighting plot. It's more of a priority for me to get a printout of the plot to the gaffer so I do the whole thing optimized as a lighting plot with just the fixtures (labeled with channel number), set walls etc., and legend. I print it out and hand it to him, then work on the controls for me. It works great.
