HI All,
We have recently switched over from AutoCAD and are having some difficulty with printing sheet layers. In AutoCAD, when you crate a title block symbol, you draw the exact sheet size as an outline and draw the title block line work accordingly and taking general margin dimensions into consideration. Never really had a problem with it.
Vectorworks seems to be a can of worms. The challenge is that whenever another user tries to print a layout they must first adjust the page settings for that sheet layer.
The steps we have been doing are the following:
- Edit Sheet layer by double clicking on the target sheet layer.
- Click "Page Setup".
- Select "Choose size unavailable in printer setup".
- In the drop down, select "One Printer Page".
- Hit "OK" three times to exit out of the Sheet Layer Manager.
If we do not follow these steps we end up with the Title Block sticking outside of the page print boundaries. How do we set this up so we do not have to do this every time?
Thanks!
