Printing to a scale

Hi,

I use Sketch Up Pro - Plan View to draw up 2d floorpans and elevations.

I am trying to figure out how I can print a floorplan to scale - there must be a way! But just cant figure it out…

Any help would be much appreciated - thank you.

I have attached a screenshot of what my floorpans usually look like.

Yes. There’s a way. Set up a scene showing the plan, save the file, send to LayOut and set the scale for the viewport. Either print form LayOut or export a PDF and print that.

Thanks Dave…I must admit I probably know 10% of what sketch up offers! So I’m not entirely sure how I do that…Could you explain how to ‘set up a scene’ with the plan & then ‘sending to layout’ Thank you!!
