Narrative:

Our original clearance was OTT6 arrival. ZDC reclred our flight via the ravnn one RNAV arrival. After passing sabbi intersection; potomac approach cleared us to descend via the ravnn one RNAV arrival. The first officer and I looked over the chart several times; and concluded the only remaining crossing restr was at ravnn intersection. After crossing ott; approach informed us that the restr at ott was 9000 ft. Approach stated that there was no traffic conflicts or problems. Flight proceeded to bwi without incident. I encourage commercial chart company to place the altitude under the fix just as all the other fixes are depicted. This is a glaring error on the ravnn arrival that needs to be fixed immediately that will prevent future crews from altdevs. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: when informed that they had missed the crossing restriction at ott the crew was still unable to locate it on the chart. It was not until after parking the aircraft at the gate that the crew was able to locate the restriction on the STAR plate. The reporter states that some aircraft in this air carrier's fleet do not automatically load crossing restrictions when the procedure is selected in the FMC; they must be manually entered. That was the case in this instance.
