Long plot

[irwin5338]

So, an engineer in my office wants a long plot os a plant we are doing. I am unsure how to do it. The size paper he wants is like 24" x 252". Any help would be appreciated.

It would help if you had a plotter/printer that has roll feed. Did you try clicking on the Properties button in the Plot dialog box and checking for a Custom Paper Sizes option?

I did try to look for that but I couldn't really find much in there. I believe that the plotter does have a roll feed though

This is autocad 2006

And what is the make/model of plotter being used?

Did you try Modify Standard Paper Sizes (Printable Area)? You would have to highlight Custom Size then click on the Modify button.

I figured it out... I had to install a different printer that would enable me to create my own custom paper size... He now has a bedsheet
