Scale the Drawing to Fit the Page
When you review drafts, a precise scale is not always important. You can use
the Fit to Paper option to plot the view at the largest possible size that fits the
paper. The height or width of the drawing is fit to the corresponding height
or width of the paper.
When you select the Fit to Paper option, the text boxes change to reflect the
ratio of plotted units to drawing units. This scale is updated whenever you
change the paper size, plotter, plot origin, orientation, or size of the plotted
area in the Print dialog box.
NOTE This option is not available when the What to Print is set to Layout.
Set Options for Plotted Objects
In the Print and the Page Setup dialog boxes, you can choose from options
that affect how objects are plotted.
Shaded Viewport Plotting. Specifies shaded plotting options: As
Displayed, Wireframe, or Hidden. The effect of this setting is reflected in
the plot preview, but not in the layout.
Plot Object Lineweights. Specifies that lineweights assigned to objects
and layers are plotted.
Plot Transparency. Specifies that transparency levels applied to objects
and layers are plotted. Plot Transparency applies to wireframe and hidden
plots only. Other visual styles, such as Realistic, Conceptual, or Shaded
will always plot with transparency.
IMPORTANT This setting can be overridden by the
PLOTTRANSPARENCYOVERRIDE system variable.
