convert 3d drawing to 2d

I have a 3d drawing that I want to make into a 2d drawing. Does anyone know how to do this?

Put this in a button. It is from a previous post.

^C^C_UCS;;_move _all;;0,0,1e99;;_move
_all;;0,0,-1e99;;_chprop;_all;;_thickness;0;;^M;

Hi Brad

Not sure what happens when I use this button !

I have a difficult intersection of two buildings to draw in LT.

I have drawn the plan and rotated the objects in plan so that one of the two buildings are now on an orthogonal plane.
I would like to draw the remainder in isometric.

Previously when in full AutoCAD i would change vpoint to 1,1,1
increase the thickness of objects and then plot to a dxb file.
New file, Dxbin, rescale the objects and I'm away.

How can I do this with autocad lt 2005 ?
DXBIN is not an LT command.

I just want the proportions which are correct in 3D to assit with 2d Isometric.

Many thanks

Jason

I am not sure I understand what you are doing, but the routine will
eliminate all Z data and I don't think that is what you want to do.

Ive been using the flatten lisp for cad lt that i have seen posted in many forums where it changes all the z values to 0 and it seems to work well when the view is set to top, bottom or either side. Is there any way to flatten a 3d model in cad lt when the view is set to an isometric view. I have searcched for ages and thought maybe if i changed the ucs but i still couldnt get it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
