DWG to PDF - Plot entire page

Good afternoon,

 

Is there a way to plot the entire page, without cutting any elements out at margins?

 

I have some setting in place that still doesn't plot to the very edges / extents (I have extents ticked).

 

Cheers

On a layout tab, create a viewport you know you can plot, enter the viewport (mspace) and zoom extents. Now zoom .98x. That will bring the view of the extents away from the edge enough that the printer's hard margins will be avoided.

If that doesn't quite do it, go to .96x and try again.

 

Better yet, find an even scale that fits everything and go with that. Only go with the above suggestion if you don't care about that.

As I recall, even the 'Full Bleed' page sizes have a defined margin. You can modify the standard paper sized in the Plotter Configuration Editor and set the margins to 0". This could cause problems with physical print devices, but it works just file with digital devices like DWG to PDF.
