Hi guys, for the life of me I cannot remember how to create a scaled drawing in layout so a person can print the file off and use it as a template.
I attached a screen shot of a table leg in paralell view and its 25" high. I need to send this file to someone so they can just print it off and use it as a template to get the curves correct.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Jay
Make sure to save a scene in SKP that is saved with Parallel view and top or front or whatever is directly pointing at the object.
Save SKP file.
Send to LayOut.
Pick a template that is on large enough paper to encompass the whole object (Arch D should work - 24x36 I think).
When the viewport appears go to the SKP model tab, set the scale 1:1.
Position the viewport on the paper.
I always add a little ruler / scale bar so someone can check it when it comes off the plotter.
Export to PDF
Email to client : friend : print shop.
Thank you so much! I forgot that I could go into document setup and change paper size as well.
Thanks again!!
Jay
