Evolution Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Searched the forum and see several reponses to the question about print set up, PDF's, send to layout, printing etc. As luck would have it, I didn't find anything specific to this particular question in the knowledge base. Client's contractor wants me to print construction plans (floor plans) to 1/4"=1' on 24X36. It seems that printing pdf to 1/8"=1'scale paper size 12 X 18 and let him take to printer and have enlarged would work just as well, in practice it appears to fit ok; except, when I send 1/4 scale floor plans to layout on 24X 36 it doesn't fit. Am I going about this WRONG (I suspect)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 What you wrote makes no sense. If the 1/8 scale fits on 12 x18 then the 1/4 scale should fit on 24 x 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOU WIN THE GOLDEN RING! The Print View that opens in CA changed the paper size and I didn't catch that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electromen Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Setup the paper 24x36, Print to .PDF, Save to file to flash drive and take it to Staples. They'll print it cheap if it's B&W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 There will be a lot of times your plan won't fit on a 24 x 36 so tell him to go fly a kite, 30 x 42 it is, who's the boss anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
