    Default xrefed layers turned off but plotting

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Couldn't find an existing thread for this ...

    Architect sent us a floor plan. I turned off layers we don't need, such as dimensions. Print preview doesn't show those layers. When the plan plots, though, the dimensions plot too. Has anyone seen this?

    Architect's drawing was originally done in Revit, if that helps.

    Check if layers are turned off in viewports. Personally I freeze the unwanted layers, for some reason it works better than turning off.
    LT is still AutoCAD
