Volo View comes with a plot module that is a copy of AutoCAD OEM. Think of
it as an AutoCAD that accepts one command - plot. You can use this module
(VPLT.EXE) to make Volo View plot just like AutoCAD. You can do pen
overloading and all that other fun stuff, so you can mitigate the subtle
differences you see now with the "print" capability. "Plot" is much more
powerful. Measurement and plotting have been a differentiator between Volo
View Express and Volo View since the onset of the product line.

you set it up as a custom paper size it wants to print 11X17 as 4 panes on
8.5X11 paper. I need the 11X17 option.

to print exactly like the dwg is produced in AutoCAD. Is this just a volo
view express lack of capability? Will this not be a problem in Volo View 3?
