    Default AutoCAD Severe Error

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Autocad is a great programme with so many customisation tweaks you can carry out to personalise your own version.Problem is that sometimes a tweak may go wrong, as has just happened.While adding a plot style through my plot style manager I then discovered that whenever I tried any of the following :pagesetup,plottermanager,plotstylemanager,plotsty le,plot preview I have a problem.The following message is displayed:
    AutoCAD Servere Error - File not found.AutoCAD then freezes and I have to close it,sounds worrying! I can always reinstall Autocad again, but will loose my customisations .I can still ue my drawing editor though,weird!Anyone come across this before or got any ideas?

    Save many of your settings within a PROFILE, found in OPTIONS.

    Default Autocad Severe Error

    Saved by Mr T !Thanks I did that and it all worked.It still bugged me so I kept searching the web for that problem.Apparentley this error occured because the plot settings from my drawing are not available on my workstation,used to happen with R14.I was using R14 plot styles.To resolve this problem,you can also do this:
    1.Select the Tools menu > Options.
    2.Select the Plotting tab.
    3.Ensure that the Use Last Successful Plot Settings option is not selected.

    Ye options are a great tool, I have my classroom machines with the same menus etc through a profile.

    Beware that not all settings are saved in a profile.

    Make sure you have write privileges on your network so the plot settings can be saved.
