q When generating a plot file be sure to select the Repro
set-up and then adjust your plotting parameters as normal (additional
parameters, scale & sheet size).
q If you are plotting EXTENTS, make sure that you perform
a ZOOM EXTENTS prior to creating the .PLT file to ensure AutoCAD
updates the extents and to double-check for any stray lines
that could affect your output.
q We suggest leaving the Pen Numbers/Colors and weights at
their default, and allowing our software to make adjustments
for weights and screens. Changing the defaults can result in
incorrect line thickness.
q It is recommended to do a Full Preview in the Plot Window
to verify the DWG size and that the plot looks correct. |
