AutoCAD Training Overview
Plotting is one of the most important aspects of AutoCAD, and for many users, it is also one of the most misunderstood. This course is designed as a one-day survey of plotting and related features in AutoCAD 2006. It would be a suitable class for users upgrading from earlier versions of AutoCAD who need to master new techniques related to plotting, such as page setups, the PUBLISH command, and sheet sets. It would also be appropriate for any users who need a better understanding of plotting concepts and techniques in AutoCAD.
Sheet sets is a new feature in AutoCAD 2006 and relate to plotting in several ways. They can automate the creation of layouts for plotted sheets, help coordinate sheets in a multi-drawing project, and easily print all the sheets together.
