Tiled drawings?

Hi guys, I'm trying to tile a drawing for a part I need to make from acrylic sheet. If I place my model at 1:1 scale and then select that with the tiling box checked in the print dialog it only prints 4 sheets and not the entire model.

My guess is that your sheet size is too small. Your sheet size always has to be bigger than the view you put on it, otherwise the rest will just get cut off.

 

Try changing the sheet to a custom size that is just barely bigger than the model view (at 1:1 scale) and then make sure your printer page size (in printer properties) is set to the size you'll want it actually printed at.

 

Then, with model 1:1 and tiling enabled, it should print it how you'd like.

 

And don't worry if there's a crazy large white space around the tiled pages in the print preview if they don't have those center marks included - it should only make pages for the areas that have the center marks.
