Re: title block trouble |

This is a function of your own printer. You will need to waste a sheet
of paper for this test. Draw lines an 1/8" apart starting from the
edges of your "paper" (an AutoCad model-space drawing). Number those
lines from the outside edge, 1, 2, 3 etc. up to about 1.5" inches. So
you will have 11 lines parallel to each edge of the "paper". Then plot.
Now you will see exactly how big your printers margins are and can draw
your "plot area" box (I suggest in defpoints). Put a small dot (not in
defpoints) - and I do mean small at each corner of this box and you
should get the same result every time you plot.
Good luck. Every time AutoCad upgrades and changes the plotting, our
office comes to a screeching halt to set up our standard title block
drawing once again.
