Hello,
I am using AutoCAD for Mac 2011 and I've been pretty happy with the product from day 1. The only real annoyance I have is that the print/plot dialog never remembers my last print settings!
As all of my drawings are model-space based, I usually print a window at a specified scale. Is there any way to get AutoCAD for Mac to remember the last print settings for all drawings? I've used AutoCAD for Windows for years and there is a check box in the plot dialog for the Windows version.
Thanks in advance.

Hi David,
Yes, in AutoCAD for Mac there is no "Apply" button in Print dialog, as in Windows version. So in order to "remember" settings for printing you have to:
- create named page setup in Page Setup Manager (File->Page Setup Manager->"+" button under list of page setups),
- setup all settings for this named page setup (you can do it just after creation of page setup, when you pick "+" button and give the name to page setup)
- in Page Setup manager select newly created Page setup and select "Set current" from Gear menu
- save file
From this moment, when you open Print dialog it will show you settings for you Page setup, i.e. it will remember settings, even after you reopen file next time.
