With these functions, you can print a drawing.

Do the following:

  1. Specify print settings:

    • Select a printing device.

    • Select a print style table.

    • Select the paper size.

    • Select the area you want to print (Limits, View, Extents, Windows).

    • Select the correct scale.

    • If necessary, select to print to PLT or PDF. The paper size is selected the same way as when printing to paper.

    For more information, see Define print settings.

    The preview lets you examine the print (paper layout, line widths and colors ) before sending it to the printer. You can also copy the preview picture to the Windows clipboard with the (Copy) button or save it as an .bmp file with the (Save) button.

  2. Click OK to start printing.

You can also print drawings using drag-and-drop. This means that you grab hold of a drawing icon, for example in Windows Explorer, by clicking and holding the left mouse button on the drawing icon, and then dragging and dropping it on the printer icon. The program will print the drawing by its drawing limits using the default printer definition. You can also print a drawing by right-clicking a drawing icon and selecting Print.
