New user of AutoCAD LT 2005.
I use AutoCAD LT 2005 on Windows XP.
I have used AutoCAD LT 2002 and when using the plot dialogue box the settings are set in mm. So when I plot, for ex. an A1 drawing from layout tab I plot at one to one. The viewport is scaled to whatever I want.
When I use AutoCAD LT 2005 I have to plot at one to 25.4. The plot dialogue box seems permanently set at inches. I have re-set the units from the format dropdown menu, but it makes no difference.
What am I doing incorrectly?
It seems the dialogue boxes in 2005 don't seem user freindly.
Perhaps I'll get used to them.
