AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting In Paper Space?

Nov 8, 2013

Normally I plot in paper space and everything works well. when I plot in paper space all the lines ae much, much lighter and almost invisible, whereas if I plot the same drawing in model space the plot comes out perfectly, though not in scale.  I must have pushed a wrong button somewhere but wnat button is beyond me.

AutoCAD LT :: Changing Plot Scale In Model And / Or Paper Space?

Feb 23, 2012

I'm using 2004lt- I have current .dwg in modelspace and set up to plot in PS@ 3/23"-1'-0". I'd like to create a second set of PS tabs to plot portions at 1/4"-1'-0" on the same border when needed.

In its a single viewport in MS  and PS the current scale is 1:1 but if i change it to 1/4"-1',etc the plot preview appears wrong

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: 2 Of 3 Viewports In Paper Space Do Not Show Up?

Mar 11, 2008

2 of 3 viewports in paper space do not show up in print preview, nor will they print. The viewports are all on the same layer, defpoint layer. Even if I create 3 new viewports and erase the old ones, still can only print preview one viewport and only one viewport will print.

AutoCAD LT :: PDF Print From Paper Space - Slow Preview Then Will Not Complete The PDF Plot

Sep 20, 2013

Have a dwg with two layouts sheets that print to  pdf in paper space - one layout works just fine the other NOT.

Both include one view port and a few small details as pdf underlays(@ 150 kb each) in the PAPER space layout.

The problem  sheet -  ran a very slow plot preview but it did complete a full view of the layout,  then when selected to do the plot it never completes the pdf.

I tried a pdf plot of the same area in MODEL space and it previews just fine and plots to a pdf just fine.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting Imported Shape Files In Paper Space

Sep 29, 2000

If I import an Arcview shape file into Autocad Map, why can't i plot it out from Paper Space??? I can plot out shape file data in Model Space but not Paper Space. The data is mapped to a layer, and it can be viewed in "Print Preview" but nothing comes out when i plot from paper space.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Export Drawing From Paper Space - Small Details In PDF

Jun 1, 2011

I've run into a small problem while trying to export a drawing from paper space as a PDF.  The drawing is of an electrical panel for a product.  The panel is rather large, but the drawing includes some smaller details, such as a vendor logo on a component or a few extra lines on the border of a display screen.  We have a large, multi page PDF file that uses A4 paper size that I need to insert this drawing into, so the export must be at this size.  When exporting, I have CAD set to use monochrome and ignore the line weights, which solved my initial problem that the parts would show up as solid black splotches.

Now that the back story is over, here's the problem.  When I export the pdf, everything looks great except these small details around the components.  For some reason, the lines in the components will shift to one side or the other, causing breaks between features.  Most of these breaks occur between an arc endpoint and a line endpoint.  The export also excludes some smaller bits of geometry.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Text Objects Not Printed In Conceptual Paper Space Viewports?

Jul 3, 2012

When printing a paper space viewport in Conceptual Visual Style mode, text objects are visible in the print preview but not in the printout on paper. Why are they not hidden in the preview if they are not going to be printed?

AutoCad :: Multiple Viewports To One Viewport (paper Space)

Apr 12, 2013

I am currently working on a .DWG in Civil3D which has 12 viewports. This particular .DWG causes my computer to lag quite a bit. I was wondering if there was a way of combining viewports in paper space (i.e. taking areas from multiple viewports and displaying them in one viewport), or if I am stuck with the individual viewports? I am just looking to speed up the process, it takes a long time to load the .DWG and work within it, the problem happens to others as well.

.DWG info:
Large area with many smaller sites (retention ponds and such)
All sites must remain in the paper space layout
(I've tried deleting viewports, and that does speed up the process, but again, I need to keep all sites intact).

Computer info:
Windows 7 64-bit
8GB Ram
Intel Core i5-3450 CPU @ 3.10GHz
NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Routine For Multiple Paper Space Layout Tabs

Nov 25, 2013

Any LISP routine that can create multiple paper space layout tabs and can name them incrementally. I have a template and I wanted to copy tab2 of my layout multiple times and name them incrementally. I have a code shown below that comes close to what I need it to do but it creates a "New Layout" instead of copying the tab I need it to. Please see code below:

(vl-load-com)(defun c:LAYOUT+ (/ *error* prefix i n acDoc oLayouts layoutName) (defun *error* (msg) (if acDoc (vla-endundomark acDoc) ) (cond ((not msg)) ; Normal exit ((member msg '("Function cancelled" "quit / exit abort"))) ; <esc> or (quit) ((princ (strcat "
** Error: " msg " ** "))) ; Fatal error, display it ) (princ) ) (if (and (setq prefix (getstring "
Enter layout name prefix: "))

[Code] ......

AutoCad :: Object Set To Plot Grey (any Grey) In Paper Space

Jun 13, 2013

I am currently running Map 3D 2012 with CadWorx and I am having an issue with one of my multi tab drawings. Any object set to plot grey (any grey), that is in paper space, is plotting black only in one of my layouts. similar objects in model space and in both spaces on other layouts are all plotting accordingly.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Change Plot Setup To Multiple Sheets For Use With Batch Plot

May 21, 2013

I have one drawing per file at model tab. When I need to plot a multiple page file, I use:

Print > Batch Plot.

The problem is that I have to set plot configurations ( plot style table, plot area, paper size, etc) in each file before use Batch Plot.

Now I received 722 files with a wrong Plot Style Table. For this time I change the associated *.ctb file at Plot Style folder, but I will need to associate the right *.ctb to each drawing. It's also common to have to change other properties.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Changing Between Model Space To Paper Space Locks Application

Apr 12, 2013

In 2012 Autocad, cannot change from model space to paper space, or paper space to model space without locking up in several drawings.

In 2012 Autocad, cannot change from model space to paper space, or paper space to model space without locking up in several drawings.

I can log into another user's computer and open the file fine. But when i use my computer or a brand new computer fitting all Auto CAD specs, it locks up. When I plot I have to reset my settings to the PTE standards every time.

I now get CAD errors when CAD is not even open. Also VTPSUHM barely works. I generally have to restart my computer several times to get it to work.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Dynamic Blocks Showing In Model Space But NOT In Paper Space

Mar 22, 2012

I am a landscape architect trying to xref in civil backgrounds. I have noticed twice now from two different civil firms that some of the civil symbols (dynamic blocks) are having visibility issues in paper space. No the viewport layers are not turned off or frozen. No the views weren't placed using the sheet set manager. Yes the blocks are created on layer zero and yes the associated layer is not off or frozen. I don't believe these blocks are annotative blocks. They appear, as expected, perfectly clear in model space. I just toggel over to paper space and "poof" they've disappeared.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: X Y Coordinates From Model Space On Paper Space?

Nov 5, 2013

I'm trying to create a block that reads the x and y coordinates of a point from the end of a leader. Which is fine and easy enough if I use the block in the same space.. ie model space or paper space (layout tab).

However I wan't to be able to capture the coordinate from the model space, through the viewport, and pass it onto the block in Paper Space. Is this possible?

Or is it a case of having to use a more LISP based approach?

AutoCAD LT :: Model Space Hatch Hiding Paper Space Multileader

Dec 10, 2012

I'm running ACAD LT 2013. 

I have a solid hatch that is in model space (actually in an xref in model space).  When I use multileaders (in paper space) and point into the hatched area, that part of the multileader becomes hidden.  As if it was a layering or object arrangement issue.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Switch Object From Model Space To Paper Space

Oct 12, 2012

I feel like I have a vague memory of once learning how to click on an object in a viewport and being able to click a button or use a command to switch that object to paper space (so that it appears the same size). I'm trying to avoid having to go through the steps to scale down the object once I get it in paper space).

AutoCAD 2013 :: Paper Space Viewports - Wipeouts In Model Space

Jul 13, 2012

I have several viewports rotated in paper space. When i set them to let say 1:100 scale go to paper space and then click into viewport it comes back to zoom extends of model space and i have to set it all up again and rotate it.

Second problem is that I've created wipeout in model space when i go to layout (paper space) ti looks just how i want it.

When I go to preview or plot it doesn't recognise any wipeouts?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: How To Get From Paper Space To Model Space While Converting Scale Properly

Feb 8, 2012

I need to have users plot to DWF from paper space so they can retain their customized layers colors etc, on that specific paper space tab, as well as the view via viewport that they like most.

I then am mixing this with FDO data generated out of Model space. Unfortunately, when using the EXPORTLAYOUT command, the data is coped into Model space but seems to retain it's paper space coordinates. I had hoped this function would behave like CHSPACE and copy everything from paper to model space in the same scale.

Is there a way for me to achieve this?

AutoCad :: Text Doesn't View In Same Model Space / Paper Space

Aug 24, 2012

ACAD 2010 text doesn't view the same in MSpace and PSpace! Model space is the acad default text: txt Paper Space it appears as it should as Romans. The drawings print as txt and not as it should Romans! When I change the text in model space to Romans, save the drawing, enter PSpace and the return to MSpace, it seems to 'reset' back to text!

This is specific to my workstation BTW, when I open the dwg file on a colleagues PC it opens Romans in both Model and Paper space.

AutoCad :: Referencing Title Block From Model Space Into New Tab Of Paper Space

Jul 11, 2011

I just started a new job and am struggling to set everything up the way my old company had AutoCad configured. My old company actually had people that were involved in writing the code for AutoCad on the payroll, so hopefully what I'm looking for isn't some intense computer programming issue.

In short, I am trying to be able to create a generic title block in model space, and reference that title block into paper space of a new drawing without having to create a new tab or anything first. A new paper space tab is automatically created upon attaching the new title block. My old company had its own custom menu bar with lots of custom commands, so the work flow would go something like this: "Old company name" in menu bar -> "Insert" -> "Title Blocks" -> "24x36 title block" (or whatever size we wanted to use obv). Once the desired title block size was selected, a new tab would be created in paper space with the title block as an xref, and a copy of the generic title block was saved to the main folder containing drawings of the project, and could be edited with the specific project info from there.

Is there a semi-easy way to do this, or is this a coding issue that a non-programmer such as myself might have some difficulty doing?

AutoCad :: Locking Out Model Space While Editing Text In Paper Space

Oct 24, 2012

I use x-ref's inserted in model space and label in paper space - always.

I would like to see a way of locking out model space while editing text in paper space. Unless you double click right on the text, you often end up in Model Space...I know - big deal right? It can become annoying or a big deal when a deadline is looming - when is one never? Also big fan of locking viewports.
