2-d drawing from a 3-d model in a viewport in 2009

Using AutoCAD 2009.

Is there a way to get a 2-d drawing form a viewport with a 3-d model

in it. I only want what is seen in the viewport. Flatshot command did

not work.

thank you,

Have you tried MVSetup?

Just tryed MVsetup resulting in unknown command.

You can use "dxb" plotter.You need to add dxb plotter from plotter mananger.Then you can print to file.Then open new drawing and type cmd

"dxbin" and select your path for plot file.

I don't have a dxb plotter listed in plot manager.

Try adding a system printer. Look at the options you get when doing this.

You could just flatshot the 3D model in MS, then set the viewport to show the flatshot object only. you dont really need to show the 3D object right? just a sort of traced over element of it

The OP says Flatshot, for some reason, did not work. He offered no further explanation.

Curious,,, we have cad2009 and it works. perhaps muck was using it in PS w/c really wont work.

Alas, perhaps a reply from our OP would shed some light on the issue
