view ports etc for plotting

Nov 10, 2006 3 Replies

I am new to plotting with autocad , using 2007 and am confused as how to set up views in order to plot and how to set up the scale also



This has become a pretty complex thing to accomplish with all the new improvements in acad. I was reading a recent "mastering AutoCAD" by Omura last weekend that admits that in the first paragraph under "plotting".

I'd recommend this:

Make a pot of coffee

Turn the phone off

Open the help file, or get an after-market book

Read the section on plotting

You will have to invest some time to understand everything involved in making pretty plots with Acad, and it won't happen overnight.
