    Generating PDF files using Batch Plot Utility in AutoCad 2000

    You may want to try Win2PDF or DWG2PDF. Here's the sites: http://www.daneprairie.com/ or http://www.neteit.com/. Win2PDF allows you to print to PDF. Use your batch plot utility and your done. DWG2PDF I have never used, but should be a good program. Good Luck.

    AutoCAD Demonstration Help!

    Ok Stiker, Tigrek, and other code junkies hiding in the wings I need some help. Here's what I'm looking at: My company is evaluating ESRI products and they want me to create a demo of what can be done with AutoCAD Map along the same guidelines. Because we have been focusing on the drawings...

    Isometrics....Help!

    You can also use 3D and set your view to the isometric plane you want before plotting. I do this when details are needed for some of our booster pumps, lift stations, or water plants. If you decide to go this route, investigate the capabilities of the extrude to path command. It will save you...

    AutoCAD Drawings That Triple In Size

    Great Striker. You put my thoughts into words exactly, except for the $paper_space and $model_space variable which I didn't think about.

    opening acad2000 dwgs in R14.

    No, but if you download the newest version of intelliCAD you can view, edit, and save back into R14 format. You'll also find that the command structure is the same if you play with it.

    AutoCAD Drawings That Triple In Size

    I have similar problems with my CAD department, but it's usually files or referances to some inserted block like a key or Access database. I can't seem to pin down where yours would be comming from though. When you make a wblock your actually purging the drawing of everything accept what you...

    AutoCAD Drawings That Triple In Size

    Did you insert the title block as a block? If you did, was it exploded at any point before fixing it with the wblock command? Is this tiltle block the one you use as a standard?

    AutoCAD '00 File Size Limitations?

    Nope, still won't except files over 50MB. I can't figure out if it has anything to do with Windows or AutoCAD. I would bet it windows though.

    AutoCAD 2000 on Windows XP

    You would think that XP Home and XP Pro would have the same underlying structures. Does anyone know if it's linked to a specific .dll?

    I am having trouble Installing SuSE Linux 7.0 Personal

    What type of video card and monitor are you running Yordan? It would also help to know the driver that you are selecting on install and what resolution your wanting to run at.

When I first installed the starndard, and detected, 4.1 driver with the OpenGL acceleration XWindows wouldn't...

    AutoCAD '00 File Size Limitations?

    Thanks, but I found them located in the advanced tab of the system properties dialog. I must have looked over them the first time I went there. I'll keep you posted if it works.

    AutoCAD '00 File Size Limitations?

    This is going to sound like an extremely dumb question, but where are the memory settings on Win 2000. Neither my cheif tech or I know where the settings are, and can't seem to find any documentation on them. I gave up a short time ago and figured that MS hide them so that no one could...

    Plotting 2 C size drawings on same page

    At the prompt in AutoCAD type 'hpconfig' then set the plotter not to cut between drawings. When you finish your set hit the 'form feed and cut' button on the plotter itself to cut the pages.

    AUTOCAD 2000 PROBLEM

    Insert the drawings into the main drawing instead of using Xreferances. An Xref is a referanced drawing made in AutoCAD format that is externally referanced by another file. Some file formats don't handle referances, others require the referances to be in the same format as the exported files...

    I personally would discuss this with your boss, and see if the company have a leave of absense policy. Most companies will allow you to leave your job for a specified amount of time without reprimand. I know an engineer that did this with our company on a 1 and a half year agreement. He started...
