Hi all
I'm drawing a map with AutoCad, but I have a problem with printing. In the drawing, north is where it should be, but I want the building on the map to be in the same line in the pdf output as the paper sheet.
For printing, the drawing should be turned less than or more than 90 degrees. Is it possible to do this so that this only rotates in the pdf file?
I don't want to rotate the drawing in the model.

Why aren't you using Layout with viewports for printing?
It shouldn't matter what angle the Layout viewport is twisted you should be able to plot it at 90° or 180° to fit the paper while plotting or outputting to PDF.

Yes.
Go to layout and use the ALIGNSPACE (Express Tool).
Select the first and second point in Model to align with a first and second point in Paper space.
Then set an appropriate scale (AutoCAD 2022 Help | About Scaling Views in Layout Viewports | Autodesk)

(Before ALIGNSPACE) (After ALIGNSPACE)

Does this command work in Autocad LT?
