PRINT TO SCALE

Anonymous

Can anyone tell me how to print to scale?  I am using 11 x 17 tabloid but none of my prints are to scale.  If I try to select a 1"=1'-0" scale i lose the plan in the viewport.  I can only print using 1=1 scale, but that is not a to scale.

 

Many Thanks!!

Fred

Hi Fred,

In order not to lose the plan inside viewport, I can advise you to activate viewport by double clicking inside it at first, than you need to reposition the plan in the center of the viewport, than use scale list to select one of the predefined scales. After you set the desired scale, use pan command to adjust the position of the plan inside viewport. Now lock viewport with padlock icon on the Status Bar in order not to lose the scale, now activate paper space and print.
