smp3728 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I have done some searching via the forums, google, and yahoo but since I really don't know what I'm looking for my searches have gained me nothing. My company uses AutoCAD MEP 2010, in which I have drawn our latest air conditioning project. Now that I am done I am on to plotting, the whole project won't fit on one sheet with the scale I would like to use, my issue comes in with match lines, I can't seem to get it to auto split my drawing onto two sheets. I know I can draw a line and use multiple view ports/layouts, but I was hoping there was some way to "auto nest" my drawing to sheets? I do apologize for being so naive, and if this truly is covered somewhere on the forums again I am sorry. Thank you so much for your time and any help, it is greatly appreciated.

tzframpton Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 That's the way we still do it, the good 'ol fashioned Viewports/Layouts. You can start getting into Projects and the Sheet Set Manager for some much better efficiency with plotting and layouts but at a huge cost of actually learning and using the Project Navigator and Sheet Set Manager. Sometimes it's just better to do things the old way IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 From time to time I email *.dwg files to my local drafting supply. They print large drawings very inexpensively, a 24 x 36 usually only cost me a few bucks. Handy enough. Service is usually same day, they call when your prints are ready to pickup.
