    hi

    I was wondering if it is possible to "highlight" certain sections of a drawing and print just that area.

    I have tried previously from .dwg files sent to me and I can't seem to get it to work.

    I'm probably missing something simple but I need some help.

    thanks

  2. Choose 'plot' - 'plot settings' and than select 'window'.
    You than select what you want to plot.
    Is that it?

    Check out the VIEW command. You can have as many views as you want. Plot
    the View.

    Use the WINDOW option under plot settings and just pickwhat you want to print. I use this option a lot grab a part of a drawing I want to discuss with someone in another office or to fax to a client.
