Hi,
I switched to mac recently and I can not print in eps file as before I was on winows.
How do I ad a virtual plotter?
In windows I added the printer from "plotter manager" and than I chose the "PostScript Level 1 Plus"
but now I I do not know what should I do.
Thanks

Hi,
Try "Save as PostScript..." from PDF button on AutoCAD Print dialog:

Hi,
I try to do this but I can`t chose the drawing scale, the paper size and the area of the screen that I want to print.
I also tried to "export" in eps, but the result is the same!!
Thanks
When I "Save as PS" from AutoCAD's Print dialog I get PS file exactly the same size and scale as PDF, I just checked in Illustrator. So everything (paper size and drawing scale) could be assigned for PS file as for PDF.

Hi, I'm having the same problem. I can save as PDF in the correct size, however, when I use the same settings to save as Postscript, it only saves it as an 8.5 x 11 page. What am I missing?
Hi,
I finally discovered a way out!
Instead of printing from the window Model, I "print" after setting (from the layout windows) paper size and drawing scale.
From "Model" I could not be able to print in eps.
I hope I was helpful,
sorry for my English!!
Hi,
I do nothing special:
- create Page Setup via Page Setup manager,
- assign this page setup to Layout (or Model)
- in Print dialog select "Save as PostScript"
I have checked via Inkscape - page size ia absolutely the same as in PDF file created from my drawing:

Hi,
If the scale of printed output doesn't matter for you, then set Paper orientation to Landscape (because you set printing area as landscape) and check-mark "Fit to paper":
