Is it possible to import an autocad drawing in corel with the properies
of the plot from autocad?
In more simple words to import a drawing in corel with the sizes of the
pens as they would appear in printing and not all the same as they
appear in the screen.
thanx!
Sorry, wrong attitude.
To the OP, depending on your versions, you can't do this in one step. With
newer versions of CD, you will get your layers imported, and if you
generally draw BYLAYER and plot by color, you can then easily select the
contents of each layer and then apply an appropriate graphic style. With
older versions of CD (or Essentials) you can make HPGL plot files, one per
lineweight, and import them into Corel. They come in as a group to which you
can apply a graphic style with the properties you want. With the latter
process, remember to give yourself registration geometry for final sizing
and alignment of your groups.
Hope this helps.
Thanks Michael.
btw (OT), in your 'Hillside Garden', what is the material to be used in the
stone wall?
I construct Keystone and Belgard (concrete block) walls:
