Join author Jeff Bartels as he shows how to transition your AutoCAD designs from concepts to workable construction documents. First, discover how to create hard copies of your drawings that are printed to a measurable scale. Then learn to assign annotations to a plot scale, so text, dimensions, and callouts are properly sized. Next, you'll explore how to share drawings with others—even between different CAD programs. Jeff also takes a close look at the DWF format, which enables clients to view and mark up drawings without CAD software. The final chapter offers designers a chance to use what they've learned to complete a small challenge project.

Topics include:

Creating quick plots

Choosing line weights

Creating, organizing, and reusing labels

Using the Annotative property to size text and multileaders

Creating custom scales

Saving drawings to other formats

Plotting to PDF and DWF

Sending drawings via email or eTransmit
