I am using AutoCAD 2007 and am wondering why when I plot to a PDF it never plots it to scale. Every drawing seems to be just a little shy of the scale.

:x Very frustrating!

Is there something I am missing?

 

Please help me!

Could you post a screenshot of your print dialog box?

is it when you print the pdf to paper?

Could be Page Scaling on the left under Page Handling in the print dialog box.

There are two places where you could be having issues.

1. In the Plot to PDF make sure fit to page is not selected and the proper scale is chosen.

2. In the PDF to printer make sure the page scaling says NONE.

 

my bet is on number 2. Hope this helps.

Hi,

 

The best way in my opinion is to plot with cute pdf

Autocad 2010 has a much better pdf creator btw

For extended formats "non standard" this can be some trouble because u will need to add those formats manually into your printer-server settings.

The explanation is in dutch do
