Is that standard measurements or can that be set up individually?

AutoCad :: 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 Print / Plot :: Changing Printable Area Changes Paper Output Size?
Sep 28, 2010Using an HP 1050c Plus with the latest HP drivers for Windows XP on AutoCAD MEP 2009. If I use the standard printer margins it all works fine, except that the margins are way too big and no border we have will print without cutting off at least .25" all around. If I go to properties and change the margins to .1" all around, my 42x30 sheets will print out with 43" of paper. If I make them .25", I will get 42.5" of paper. I just started at this company and have never had this problem before with an HP 1050 plotter. I have tried different combinations of the Extend margins, Inked area and autorotate checkboxes but haven't been able to figure it out yet.

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?

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.

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.

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 :: Adjust The Catchment Area To A Minimum Size?
Jun 22, 2011I am working on basin areas for a very large project area When I use the catchment option, it will give me the immediate area around the point I have selected sometimes no more than a acre, and it is obvious that the contributing area extends well beyond the lines of the catchment area. Is there a way to adjust the catchment area to a minimum size so it will look beyond the immediate contribution and search for the actual basin area, or am I just wishing/dreaming?

View 10 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Choosing A Plot Area - Non-active Area No Longer Grayed Out
Apr 6, 2009I've recently migrated from AutoCAD 2008 (non-industry specific) to AutoCAD 2010 so I don't know if this was an issue in 2009.
Back in 2008, when I choose the 'window' option when specifying a plot area, AutoCAD would show the workspace so that I could manually select a windowed plot area, and at the same time the whole workspace would be greyed out except the previously active window area.
This was handy, because we can have as many two dozen title-blocks (and therefore separate viewports) in paperspace, and knowing what plot area I last plotted or added as a saved page setup.
In 2010, it no longer does that. I now have to rely on the dashed border to know where the active plot area is/was (checked 'display printable area' in options>display tab) which I personally don't really like using.
