Solving AutoCAD scale problems
You can check and change the drawing file information before you process the
drawing to view or print it. The drawing file information depends on the
drawing file format.
When you receive an AutoCAD.DWG, you may need to set or change the scale
of a drawing. The correct scale must be set in order to have drawings correctly
printed. If the drawing will be too large for the selected paper size, Océ Repro
Desk will warn you and suggest an estimated scale. The estimated scale is
based on comparing the size of the digital drawing against the size of the paper.
However, there is no substitute to knowing the actual scale of a drawing and
ideally scale should be set by the author of the drawing.
▼
Setting an AutoCAD scale
1
Set paper size to the size requested by the customers.
2
Set scale to Full (100%).
3
Process the drawing.
Note:
Océ Repro Desk will process the drawing and alert you that the
drawing has the wrong size for the selected paper size. It will also suggest
an estimated AutoCAD scale. Nevertheless it will often estimate on the low
size, so try the next higher standard AutoCAD scale.
4
If the drawing has still the wrong size, find out if the customer is plotting by
extents, limits, display or view. Most customers will plot by extents.
5
As a last solution, set the AutoCAD scale to fit to page and view the drawing’s
title block. Often the scale of the drawing will be contained in the title block.
