JHarbinson Posted Thursday at 04:07 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:07 PM I am using HD Pro 2023. I would like to be able to print layout view for printing plans in 24"x36", Arch D. I can change the "Drawing Sheet Setup", but it doesn't scale the title block, etc to the larger size. Is there a way to make 24"x36" the default print size as well as have the title block. borders, etc scaled appropriately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM I've taken the 18x24 default layout sheet, set up a master layout with the information I want, saved it, then created a 24x36 master layout sheet from it. Then I can use it whenever I want. I don't mess with the title block. I just take the border, bring it to the edges of the larger paper, then slide the block to the right edge. It's large enough, I think, for all of the information needed. I have it saved in a file and just pull it from there for each job. Plus, I have a bunch already "made up" for the clients I work with the most. Often they like having their business logo on the paper in the space at the bottom right corner between the block and bottom of sheet as well.

May I ask how you set-up a "Master Layout"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted Thursday at 04:42 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:42 PM I have a master plan that I start my jobs from too. Just take a layout, make your changes, then save as a name that's easy, like 18x24 master, or 24x36 master. Then when you open it for a job, save it as the job and get rid of the ".plan" suffix so it becomes a layout for that job. Then when you make your changes, it saves as a layout for that job, and your master stays intact for the next one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
