How to Print Drawing in AutoCAD | AutoCAD Printing Tutorial Video Lecture | A complete Guide to AutoCAD (English) - Design Softwares

in this tutorial we will learn how to
print a drawing and how to change the
version of the drawing how to recover
trying those all the remaining things
we'll cover in this tutorial let's start
suppose I want to print out this drawing
so for that a plot command is here click
on plot then choose the printer or to
which vendor you want to print suppose I
want to print to DW to PDF and choose
the paper on which paper you want to
plot our print suppose I want to create
ain't on a3 landscape a 3/4 20 by 297
then plot area click on this display and
choose window and choose the two points
from this point to this point then
preview so this now it is coming on the
left side so I want it at the center so
right click and exit and click on center
the plot and click on view so your
drawing will come exactly at the center
of the sheet right let exit now drink is
coming in color if you want it in black
and white then from here plots file
table you can choose monochrome yes
preview so your drawing will come in
black and white
right click exit if you want more space
on the left side if I want more space on
the lip side then remove the center the
plot and you have to adjust this where
the x value if I increase the x value
view it will leave more space on left
side then that's it so in this way you
can control the margin on the left side
then next is you can choose portrait if
you want to print on vertical sheet or
landscape for printing on horizontal
sheet then next will be plot scale how
much scale you want so here by default
filter paper is selected so it will
automatically adjust the scale to fit
the paper if you do not want the feed to
paper remove the option and you can
manually choose the scale from here
suppose I want to choose your print it
at 1 s 2 2 that is half scale you will
just feel ugly you just continue so it
have it has become a smaller so you have
to if you want to print it to the scale
you should be created should be created
as a drawing with proper scale actually
if I print it for 2 s to 1 that is scale
will be double fit the sheet will become
smaller so by changing the sheet you can
print it suppose I try to print on a2
size sheet 3 so still it is not fitting
so you have to choose the proper sheet
while you create using scale option you
have to create the run properly
otherwise it will not fit in the sheet
suppose again I want to print it on a3
and I don't wonder scale so I will slip
it to paper and from here you can choose
the unit in which unit of your creative
suppose I created in mm so I will choose
that and then pu and then rightly can
plot once you click on the plot it will
start the floating rib it and suppose
now this drawing is coming in single
thickness all over the thickness is same
but I want the different thickness for
different objects so how to create that
so for that at first year to create a
drawing with proper coloring scheme that
means for object I use sine color for
dimensional use the green for centerline
hello
so you can assign different colors on
different thickness to different color
so let's see that so for that here I
will create a new broad fail table new
then I will start it from scratch click
on start from says next give the name so
was my style the next and finish then by
clicking on this you can edit it edit so
at first I want all these colors to be
printed in black color so we just
swallow it down hold the shift and click
here and you can define the color object
color so I want to use a black as object
color so I want to print all the colors
in black color that I am saying from you
then from individual color you can give
the thickness suppose so I use sign for
outside objects so I will make it give
thickness or bigger thickness line
weight suppose I want it to be at 0.5
thickness then he'll a low have given
for centerline so I want it to be
thinner so I will line with I will give
a so point 50 and green is the dimension
so for that I will give suppose point 3
and the drawing sheet is there that is
in white so I want it to be printed in
suppose point 15 only and 7 clothes then
preview so you now if you see this line
is thicker it is thinner and after that
it is more thinner in this way you can
give the thickness to the object if you
want then exit and if you want to create
a PDF file of this drawing then you have
to choose from here DWG to PDF and click
on OK so it will ask the name for your
PDF file
and say so in this way it will create a
PDF file from here we can read it so
here also you can view the thickness has
been properly came it is a thicker than
smaller than that is smaller than this
so in this way you can create a drawing
with the thickness so in this way you
can plot that way the next is if you
want to change the version of that ring
how to change that suppose ah I have
created this drawing in 2014 if I give
this drawing to someone who don't out
2014 but suppose the er 2004 2006 then
this ring will not open at easing so if
I have to change this version then you
have to click on this save as and from
your file op types you have to choose
the version so here 2006 is not
available but you can choose lower than
that so I will choose 2004 then say yes
replace it so in this way this drawing
has been converted to version 2004 so it
will open in AutoCAD 2004 and any
version higher than that so in this way
you can change the version of AutoCAD
right then next is sometimes it gives
the error that you're drawing required a
recover so for that you have to go to
here then drawing utilities recover and
click on this recover and which are
drying which are you are drawing our
problem select that and open and it will
require if possible if it is not
severely damaged it will recover and
open for it also in this way you can
record your trying any damaged drying so
that's all you will stop here
