This is a "help feature", it shows your the PAPER, depends on you current PAGESETUP (or start PLOT dialog)

Plotter, Plotarea, Paper(size), Origin, PlotScale.. the result that area.

Just for testing: Start PLOT command, choose your Plotter, Plotarea, Extents, Center, 1:1,  [APPLY] to layout & Cancel

The area changed now, right?

Paper & printable borders (the 'hidden'line inside the Paperarea) is an option, i prefer to turn it on, specially for beginners.

OPTIONS, Display, lower left corner you will find where to turn it ON/OFF

Upper left corner: [Colors] , you can set the LAYOUT color to white, a kind of white is default.

Note: Sometimes this helper tool(the paper position and size) is not up to date, but for usual it is.

Hi,

Thank you for your answer.

Indeed, if i try to plot this area has changed. However, in a real situation, if i send this file in a dwg format to someone, they couldn't see this drawing in a clean way. So, that was the reason for my concern!

I got to solve the problem, follwing the instructions you gave me,

Thank you very much.
