I want to ask about the printing function.

Hello.

I want to ask two questions about the printing function.

1. I would like to know if there is a function that marks the printed area within the drawing.
When there are several areas to print in one drawing, i wonder if there is a function to distinguish whether it was the place where the print was made or not.

2. I would like to know if the 'page setup' of the printing function can be used in other drawings.
I created a 'page setup' in the drawing i use, but it does not appear in other drawings.
I want to know if there is a way to save the 'page setup' permanently.

Thank you for your answer.

Hi Choi,

I have just tried this morning to create a new page setup.
Like you there was no way to save this setup, I also tried via admin to add a new page into the template file, but this failed.

For me, as a user, this is a BUG, unless someone can point us in another direction?

Hi,
Type "EXPLAYERS" and press Enter to display the "Layouts" palette.
Here, users can copy&paste a "Pase Setup" to other drawings.
Regards.

Morning QuanNguyen,

I have just tried your suggestion, it failed and crashed the program!!!

I have managed to add a page setup to a template file, which then comes into every new drawing from now onwards, but I cannot create a page setup and load this into an existing drawing.

PS.
I have found that creating a dummy drawing with the page setup I need and then using the insert command to insert into the current drawing the page setup is added to the current drawing.
Hope that makes sense?
