para-CAD Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Layout (.layout file) is like advanced Paper space in AutoCAD. Maybe more like a print / PDF sort and compile tool. Title blocks and standard text goes there. Model space (.plan file) is everything being drawn at 1:1 real-world size. For example, when you send a plan view to a layout sheet at ¼" per foot scale, 6" tall text in plan view becomes ⅛" tall text on the layout sheet. We use 4 ½" tall text most often for 3/32" tall text on the PDFs submitted for permit. Layout is pretty amazing to quickly configure your plan.
