Can the Plot command be used to combine multiple drawing views into a single DWF file?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to print / plot a drawing which has a mixture of 2D plans and 2 3D views. I have the drawing set-up with viewports in paperspace. The objects in one of the 3D views prints perfectly, yet some of the linework from the second 3D view won't print.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm working in Illustrator 6. I've got a large piece that I'd like to print onto several 11x17 sheets. When I select Veiw---Show Print TIling, only one tile appears. I expect there to be enough tiles to cover the entire piece and be numbered for me? Where are they? How do I get them to appear?
Then when I go to Print the tile option in the print dialog is greyed out.
I know I've done this before in earlier versions.
I have several different views xreffed into a single view, should'nt they all share the base construct? i.e. If I want to overlay the lighting plan, HVAC plan and my reflected ceiling plan- they should share the first floor construct. Instead each one brings in the same base construct and then when you overlay them, the walls interfere and you get wall errors.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with all of my lines showing up on my prints when printing a 3D model. When I do a print preview, all of my lines show up but when I print to an actual sheet of paper or to PDF, the lines do not show up.

I have drawn a small machine of 3D components in the model space. Each component is placed on a separate layer so that i can isolate each component. Now I need to print machine drawings for each component in paper space. I can open a view port in the paper space and freeze all the other components not needed to get the view of the one component. the problem is that on the next paper when i try and put a view of the next item by thawing the new item and freezing the previous one, this affects the first as well. What is the best way to isolate individual components from a 3D model for printing machine drawings?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to set the sort order in Sheet Set Manager for the Model Views tab? Seems like a few releases ago it was alphabetical - now its random and almost impossible to locate a specific drawing in a large project.
Tried changing MAXSORT and it did not have an effect.
I reloaded my CAD and now I have a black background in paperspace. This is what I want but I want it to print white while haveing a black backgroud for drawing. How do I do this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way by which I can link a paper space block attribute to model space block attribute
In other words
Paper space as a block Title and attribute "QTY"
Model space has a block X and attribute "qty"
Is it possible to edit "QTY" and as a result get automatic update on "qty"

in general, I add my multileaders in paperspace after I have set my model space scale. However, I am now bound to that scale! That is, ML in paperspace really only have one scale: 1-1, right? For example, I wanted to zoom in to a part of my project (ie, reduced my scale by a 1/3) and all my ML we pointing erroniously into space.
Just so I undestand, if one anticipates changing the scale of a drawing mid-project, the ML should be made annotative, and placed in model space?
I received a drawing form a vendor that is in 3d (27 meg)...this drawing contains the model and 4 paper space sheets.
These sheets contain different pieces of the 3d model. I need to create four 2d drawings (one for each sheet). I have tried "export layout to model" with no luck as most of the drawing does not export. I have tried to copy to clipboard but, drawing is too large for the clipboard. I have looked in the "help" and there seems to be nothing on converting a 3d drawing to a 2d drawing or extracting indivigual sheets to a 2d format model. I have tried exploding the information on the sheets in order to get everything to export but that doesn"t work.
I've picked up someon elses drawings and for some reason in paperspace the ltscale is set to 10. i've tried changing the global scale factor to 1 in the linetype manager but it keeps changing back to 10 when i tab through the different sheets.
i normally have both my ltscale and psltscale set to 1 in paper space (and celtscale=1) and have a custom macro asigned to a button for my modelspace views ie 1.100,20,10 etc and a macro/button setting the ltscale back to 1 when returning to paperspace and this worked nicely.
why the global scale factor keeps reverting back to 10?
1. Does Autodesk not have their own support through e-mail or telephone?
2. Below is the crash log. Why the program is crashing when printing on a 11x17 paper size?

I just changed jobs to a company that uses MEP2012. It seems as though it is not possible to revert to Acad classic with this version. So, I am trying to mimic classic as much as possible.
One of the challenges I have found is finding the paper space tabs and model tab? it used to be directly above the command line, is there a command to turn it on?
I have several DXF files that I would like to bring together into a single AutoCAD file so I can put all the pieces I have together on a single screen. How do I do this?
Also, when I am able to do this, is there a way to give points to my separate objects so I can match them up with other points of other pieces that it's supposed to fit up to? I'm pretty new to AutoCAD
I want to create finished paperspace-tabs, with a specific layer-configuration.
How can I manage that?Each tab has to be exported to PDF as a finished configuration, without changing layers in the end.
In my title block I have a attribute with the name project_Number. Now what I want to do is the following. When I edit my block with the project number. The project number should automatically be added to a text box without me typing in the project number twice.
E.g.. This Drawing is part of the consulting services provided for Project[Project_Number] and may not be used or applied for any other purpose without prior consultation.
in other word the project number should be reference in the text box from the attribute.
I can't mask more than 1 area of an xref.
If I mask one area in model space, then I try to mask another, clicking no delete of previous boundary, it still won't let me do it. I need to mask many small pieces of an xref in the model space.
Is there any way to copy a viewport that includes model space and paper space at the same time to another drawing?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to create a 3D object such as a motor, by using 2D sections from multiple view points? For instance, I have a side view, front view, and rear view of a motor in 2D but I would like the motor in 3D. Besides cutting one of the views in half and revolving around it or push/pulling an enclosed area a certain distance for each individual feature of the motor or extruding many faces is there a QUICK and SIMPLE way to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table in an Access 2010 database which has 130 rows of records. Each row is assigned a drawing file name field and then the 6 attributes for the title block of each drawing. I am wanting a routine that will open a set of drawings, the set matching each drawing file name field record and populate the attributes in the drawing title block with the corresponding records in that row from the database table.
I have seen where multiple blocks in one drawing can be populated with an attached database but I want to populate several drawings with a single database that has several records. One row of records for each drawing.
I have some large images that I would like to print at full size, which will involve tiling across multiple sheets of paper. I can't seem to find a way to setup tiling at the Print dialog or through Gutenprint.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a second base view (using Layout/Create View/Base from model space). The problem is, I need it to be rotated from the original base view. However, when I rotate the part in model space, ALL of my views change.
So I guess my question is, how do I create multiple views of the same part that are seperate from the other base views?
Any good way to make a wrinkled (not scrunched) piece of paper without using cloth simulations? I know, sounds really easy but I'm not getting great results!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to model simple translation piece from rectangular to circle (one quarter). There is angle between rectangular side and circle side. I am able to model it very simple, but I have found that Inventor make some errors with lofted flange. Usually this type of translation piece should have flat triangles on the ends and bended triangles in corner. Unfortunately for some combinations of width/depth/diameter Inventor does not keep this rule and add some bended triangle to end edge.

I've been using Photoshop for a while now.. and I've always wondered... is it possible to actually alter the handwriting on a piece of paper, seen in the image?...
Am I able to change the letters "GARV" on the paper, to something like, "CAKE" or "JOHN" or "AUSTRALIA" ?
Matching the handwriting of "GARV" isnt a huge plus, but making the altered word look realistic, as if it were written before the image was taken. Code:
I've been playing around with the print options for a while here, and can't seem to figure this out. I want to print multiple view ports on one page.
