Jul 20, 2012I was wondering if it was possible in c3d to label points in the fashion often used for nautical charts in which each sounding (elevation) point is labeled with the integer component of the number followed by the decimal as a subscript. For instance 7.3 metres depth would look like: 73
Also I've seen charts with depths as fathoms and feet so 64 feet depth would be 104.
AutoCad :: Printable Area For DWG To PDF?
Nov 17, 2012I am aware that the dashed line in paper space represents the printable area for the type of plotter that is being used. Now... While in page setup when plotting dwg to pdf (on the same type of paper, ISO A3) the printable area border is different for every dwg. Sometimes it is right next to the paper border 1-2mm offset, and other times a good 2-3cm. I tried to resolve this but failed. New to the paper space and the whole plotting experience. So the questions are:
1. What is the printable area in dwg to pdf, what is it for?
2. Can i change the dimensions and position of the area when doing dwg to pdf, or when using other plotters?
3. Why is the area different for every dwg file when plotting dwg to pdf?

Nov 25, 2008I exported and re-data connected a polyline to be able to use the transparency style features of map. I can see it on my screen just fine but it will not plot out as such. Are the styles in map only for visual on screen and not printable?

Mar 16, 2011When I make a new Layout a new Page Setup called *Layout1* is created and assigned to the new Layout. Our plotter is assigned as the plot device, and a dashed rectangle showing printable area appears near the borders of the white sheet area represented in the Layout.
If I choose to Modify the layout, and I change the Paper size, the dashed rectangle disappears, and now I don't know how to position and size a title block to ensure that it stays within the printable area. What controls the presence of the dashed print area rectangle?
AutoCad 2D :: Disable Display Printable Area In Mac?
Apr 14, 2011We, the company, have been wording with AutoCad for ages now. All in the trusted Windows version. But the Mac is rising! And a couple of our partimers have bought Mac systems. All good and well when they still use the Windows version of AutoCad, but when AutoDesk released the Mac version, they dove on it like lions on a slow moving prey. Still that´s ok. But we work with a Windows based template. Complete with all the layers and pre/set blocks and with pre set pages. We have all the pages from A0 down to A4 format lined up in one paperspacetab. (We use single viewports to fill the pages)
This works awsomely fast and easy, when you disable the 'display prinable area' function. Now the mac-users also want to remove the printable area, so I take a look and: WFT happend to AutoCad?!?, why do they have a Coca-Cola-Zero version of the AutoCad (=Less options than the light version).
Any way to remove the prinable area? Is it posible, or do we have to work around it?
AutoCAD LT :: 2014 - Printable Area Different Between Publish And Plotting
Oct 3, 2013My layout is 11x17 and within the printable area displayed. Page setup is 11x17, Landscape But my layout gets cut off when Publishing to PDF. But is OK when Plotting PDF. I found an earlier post talking about PDF scaling having to be set to None. I found a scale setting in my CutePDF Writer that is set to 100%. There is not a None selection.
Another interesting observation is that Publishing will print the sheet upright. Plotting prints the layout rotated -90.
I am using Publish to print multiple layouts to one file.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Why Is The Printable Area Bigger Than Sheet
Nov 30, 2012I have an 11 x 17 border (true). I am printing on an 11 x 17 sheet (true). I have specified 11 x 17 sheet in plot dialogue box.
SO WHY IS MY PRINTABLE AREA 11.5 X 17.5??
i have established LIMITS at the corners of my border. there is nothing else outside the border.
this is for a template. i would like to establish the 11 x17 LAYOUT and lock it in position, never to be changed again. If someone wants to print a portion or outside they can use WINDOW, or EXTENTS, but, when LAYOUT is selected i want to see an 11 x17 rectangle eliminating from the 0,0 point and nothing else.
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Objects Outside Printable Area
Mar 15, 2013Is there a setting that you can turn on that will ignore objects (texts, lines, ect.) that are outside the printable area? If objects are to be placed "outside the box" my titleblock gets inadvertently shifted until the objects are deleted?
View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Cannot Center Drawing In Printable Area
Nov 9, 2011Plotting to layout (as opposed to extents or window) is infuriating. I cannot get my drawing to center properly within the printable area, and I can find no consistency on how AutoCAD is offsetting my drawing. My titleblock is drawn with a trim line of 22x34". I choose the ANSI D sheet size which is 22x34" and when I preview the plot the bottom left corner is offset from the bottom left corner of the printable area by .25, .25.
If I delete the 22x34 trim line from my titbleblock and replace it with a simple point at the 0, 0 bottom left corner, then when I check the layout and printable area, the point shows up offset from the bottom left corner of the printable area by .0006, .0016. Why is it any different than when a line was drawn? If I delete the point the offset from the bottom left corner of the printable area to the closest drawn element then becomes .0013, .0012.
This is absolutely ridiculous. I want to batch plot and I want to have proper margins, but it seems nothing renders consistently and I am stuck with ill-formatted plots. I would love to batch plot to extents, but as I go through the setup, that is not an option for me, so I appear to be stuck with the layout, which I have never gotten to work properly since it was introduced. What is the trick to make it work?
I am just printing to Adobe PDF with the Acrobat printer.
AutoCad :: Printable Area Margins Went Back To Default?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Border Size - Printable Area Right Scale
May 18, 2011I set a border up to be 24"x36" and it appears to be slightly outside the dotted lines for paper space when I x-ref it in. I also noticed on my plots that 3'-0" is measuring close to 3'-1" which means I have screwed something up.
I have the plot settings set to "Extents", "1:1" and I am using the Cute PDF plot driver.
Instead of creating a border that is 24"x36" do I need to create one that is exact to the printable area to make it the right scale? Not sure what the printable area is or how I figure it out though. Lost.
AutoCad :: Change Printable Area Of Custom Paper Sizes
Mar 21, 2012Trying to change the printable area of custom paper sizes?
I've plotter that allows me to create 5 custom paper sizes for each pc3 file, however after create them, i cant always access to change their printable area, you know adjusting their margins, and the strange thing is that this error doesn’t happen all the time,sometimes after a while trying they work, but just for a couple of times, after that the problem remains.
autocad.png
To be more clear, you can see on the image that it doesn’t recognize the custom paper size i have selected, however it works from time to time, allowing me to edit those margins, and after save them, they work just fine and i can use those paper sizes with no problems.
I've tried to edit the pc3 file through windows, and a message appears saying that an unknown error has occurred.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Description Keys Settings

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Getting Default Drawing1 Settings?
Dec 11, 2013When I open CAD, a blank Drawing1 file opens. I know that under Options, you are able to modify certain settings. I also know that you can edit more specific settings such as what layers and text styles for that Drawing1 file under your C drive. I think it is:
C:UsersAppDataRoamingAutodeskC3D 2014enuSupport
I have done this before but I cannot remember how. An example of what I am trying to say is in the Drawing1 that opens when you start CAD, it does not have a layer called TOPO. I want to have it so that everytime I have a new drawing1 open, it automatically has the TOPO layer in it. I know that you can do this by changing the file it references in the C drive, but I forgot how I did it.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Changing Tools And Settings
Dec 24, 2013I am still trying to learn the basics in AutoCAD. Here is an example: I have many lines created in a drawing that all are different in collar,layer,line type,. Now I want to start drawing a new line But with the settings of a specific line . instead of changing every attribute(collor,layer,line type.) How can I simple pick a line I like from the drawing and then the line tool adopts the settings from that line? The same question for other tools for example text, dims,... Is the a tool the simple picks the objects attributes and make those current ?

Jan 21, 2013Where can I find the corridor display tab/settings?
Some things, like surfaces and such, are easy to find, but for the life of me I cannot find the location for settings corridor layer & linetype & color settings (display tab).
One of my last holdouts from LD is to manually draw my curb & gutter linework and ignore the lines the corridor would create for me. I basically used the corridor lines as verification, not their full use. I decided to break from this habit, then spun my wheels trying to locate where these settings might be.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Does Not Save Profile Settings
Dec 3, 2013I'm running AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014 on Windows 7 Professional. I just got this new computer and the AutoCAD software was recently installed. As I always do when I get a new version of ACAD, I set up my Profile settings within the 'options' menu and save to my personal Profile, and set that profile as current.
Then I pull up all my typical toolbars, Layer manager, Xref manager and all that good stuff to my workspace and save a new workspace with my name, and set that workspace as current.
Now, with this new version of ACAD, every time I restart the program my settings are all gone. Even though my 'options' Profile is still saved in there, it's not set to current, so I have to do that every time. As well as my workspace, which doesn't appear the same way I set it up and saved it as a new workspace:
The ToolSpace, the command bar and the Xref manager disappears every time.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Autodesk 360 And Settings Are Ready

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Edit Command Settings
Apr 4, 2008How or where do you set the default value under the Edit Command Settings for, say, AddContourLabeling? Right now it is saying that I'm overriding the default to our company standard, but I want the default to be the company standard not the "Standard" style. This goes for all command settings. I'm sure the default is set somewhere.

It would be nice if I could have these parameters selected by default instead of having to check them both with every shp file I import. Is this possible?

I wish it was simple as the shortcut being reset or pathed to the wrong profile, but it's not the case.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Way To Transfer Newer Settings
Apr 24, 2013I have been working on a template (.DWT) for Civil3D 2012. I decided to continue my work recently with a newer vesion C3d 2013, and to my shock there seems to be no way at all to transfer my newer settings (I.E.: default layering, default data bands, newer CODECS, etc to the C3d 2012 version. This is about a week's worth of work that I will have to replicate manually to C3d 2012. I cannot believe that the 2 versions are this completely incompatable.
