AutoCAD 2007/2008/2009 DWG Format

[#1]

Hi guys, i worked on autocad over 7 years ago as a elec design engineer, and am due to move into the office and start again. Amazingly i forgot the basics. 

1 like how to scale my drawing.

2 how to find my drawing in plotter.

this is made a lot harder by the fact i am doing it overseas in a different language. 

please refresh my memory, i am sure it will come back

thanks in advance

Hi,

>> 1 like how to scale my drawing.

Use command _SCALE (>>>details<<<).

>> 2 how to find my drawing in plotter.

Oops ..... open eyes and search? Sorry, I think there was something wrong.

A drawing is plotted and then the paper comes out (with the ink on it if all was going well). To find the paper you have plotted is not an AutoCAD function.

>> [...] in a different language

If you have to use AutoCAD in a different language it may be a help to know that you can use the english commands in every AutoCAD language version if you use an underscore in front of the command, e.g.

_LINE

works in every french, german, ... AutoCAD
