I copy and pasted details from a survey drawing into my current model. A message came on screen that warned that any printed output would display the message PRODUCED BY AN AUTOCAD EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT.
I continued thinking that I would be able to purge any blocks later. I am not able to clean the drawing and any copies are printed with the message. I have tried WBLOCK and it still remains.
Drawing A has a grid system Xref-ed into it. It also has a block reference in it, repeated in various places throughout the drawing.
I Xref-ed the grid into the block to check something, and now I can't get it out. This means that the grid now repeats all over Drawing A as well and is generally being a nuisance.
If I try to unload the Xref within the block, it unloads it in Drawing A too. If I try to detach it from the block, it returns this message: Xref [Xref name] has multiple references. Not detached. If I try to detach the Xred from Drawing A, it returns the same message.
How do I unload the same Xref that occurs in a block in a drawing, and in the drawing itself, independently of each other?
I am having a problem with my scale when printed out. For Example
i set the scale of the layout to 1:1
The page set up manager is set to a4 210 * 297mm
The scale is set to 1mm = 1 unit
i draw a 100mm line and print it
when i measure the line 97.5mm on the paper.
It is always wrong when i use other scales 1:5 etc.
I create a .net automation application to print to pdf with layers. There are more 30+ layers in the drawing, I like to have the layer information in the pdf file but like to merge them to a couple:
e.g.
PDF Layer 1 show AutoCAD Layer A1, A2, A3, ...,
PDF Layer 2 show AutoCAD Layer B1, B2, B3, ...,
PDF Layer 3 show AutoCAD Layer C1, C2, C3, ...,
...
I think there will be 3 solution here:
a) merge them at the time of AutoCAD printing
b) merge layer in pdf
c) create bookmark in pdf. I have used iTestSharp to generate PDF file, merge PDF files but cannot find a solution for this. How I can do it programmically?
I have a 2D image and I have the opportunity to get this image printed as a 3D model. To do this however, I of course need a VERY SIMPLE 3D model made. I attached the photo. How to make this for me really really simple? I have tried and tried, to no avail. The image is a logo for a non-profit organization that I head.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI used 2 3d printers to print the same object(a funnel with a circular section): Makerbot replicator 1 and 2.The result was a shape which was not circular in section but polygonal. What can I do (or the owners of the 3d printers) in order to obtain a circular form?
Initially I thought it was displaying it as a polygon (”shade” command) to save memory usage but when the actual product turned out non-round I concluded that I (or the owner of the printer) may be doing something wrong.

View 7 Replies View RelatedCurrently I cannot print line weights with the "best fit" scale option selected.
Scale options of:
model 1:1 (w/o tiling) ,custom (above .7 scale), & current window all seem to scale the lineweight correctly. But the output is not limited to the sheet edges
IDW line weights display correctly within Inventor (2013) drawing environment
The behavior is the same across all printers on my system, including PDF & from the "export to PDF" option.
It seems any scale value smaller than .7 will zap the line weights from the preview as well as the hardcopy
we are using AutoCad 2011 and 2008.When any draw is open everything seems to be just fine, but when we print it out then it came out with lines around the objects(green, grey...)
We have tried 4 different printers with all drivers that we could found on internet, with no success. On the ploter we aren't having any problems and the lines are gone.Also the AutoCad 2006 is without the problems, but we want to move on to the version 11
Is there any setting which we should change?
I'm having an issue on my full scale detail sections for a set of entry doors. I used layoutwizard to create my layout and I'm adding text (dtext) and leaders and it all looks good on my screen. When I print it out the text is rotated 90 degrees. I imagine it's any easy fix but I sure can't find it.
I thought I should add- when I look at 'print preview' the text is rotated. When I go back to the layout the text looks correct. I tried unchecking the "match text orientation to layout" and checking it again and it didn't work. Seems like this might be a glitch of some sort?
update: If the text is in model space it prints properly. Only the text in paper space shows up rotated.
When I print out a certain drawing, there are a couple of lines that show up that are not visible in the drawing or on the preview of the drawing. Therefore, I don't know where the lines are coming from nor can I delete them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have to get the printed paper model, and to assembly it within Inventor.
At the moment, I have the chassis, and next step should be a surface modelling.
But I`m not sure, which tool should I use. Chassis consist of some bulkheads, and there should be one patch between two neighbors. Patches are already printed:
So I have to bend them, according to bulkheads profiles.
Question is: how can I perform this step? I can`t realize, how to bend these patches, to stich two neighbor profiles. Is it possible for Inventor? Or should I use the authomatic surface fill, and texturing later?

I am trying to create 3D models that will be printed using a high quality 3D printer in Ultra Frosted Detail.
I am knowledgeable on how to draw my shapes and extrude them to 3D, but am curious is if I need to change the shapes to "solids" for the printer to print it that way? For instance, I have a model train car that I am working on, and I have attached the file below. What I did with this basically is drew the shapes and extruded them to the thickness that I needed (Measurements are actual size and will need scaled down after the model is complete).
So If I need to make them a solid, how do I accomplish that, and then join the separate objects into one complete model ready for printing?
P.S. If you need any details about this project, basically I am composing a railroad flat car, and have built the four sides as well as the top deck as separate pieces and will combine them all together as one.
2D Base Objects: This is the basic pieces in 2D wire that are drawn to life scale and have not yet been extruded to the proper width.
3D Rendering: This is a model i drew up before I realized I might need to make the pieces solids for 3D.
As you can see in the attached images their are tiny black holes that appear on the plotted pdf that are not there in paper space. I use the 3d clip command for my viewports to split up the tower into sections. The only thing I can think of is that for some odd reason when plotted the plot routine picks up these bolt holes that are suppose to be clipped out. how to prevent this?

It is on it's own layer which is set to print at Shade 40 (plot style tables). Draworder works with other layout objects but not the geometry from the model space viewport. My watermark covers the model space geometry so it is not visible when printed. Is this possible?
