WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE Reply Adelina Slavkova says: February 17, 2011 at 3:48 pm Thanks A Lot The steps work great.

This requires few setup configurations to the PostScript plotter on your computer.

To create EPS files, all you need to do is to add a virtual plotter that uses the EPS format and then configure it to plot to a file rather than to a physical plotter.

Plot To Png In Autocad Software Is Installed

AutoCAD does not automatically create the PostScript plotter for you when the software is installed by default, it require minor configuration, a simple wizard that will guide you thru steps by steps.

After clicking on it, a dialog box will appear, which tells you a little about the wizard.

This window will asks you to determine the type of plotter you want to add.

Select Adobe from the Manufacturers list, there should only be 3 options to select at the under the model list.

If you are not sure how the files will be used, select Level 1.

The next dialog box to appear would be the Import Pcp or Pc2.

Ignore this dialog due to the fact that it is the configuration for a physical printer.Proceed by clicking the next button.

Select the Plot to File option, this is to enable AutoCAD to plot to your computer instead sending your EPS plot to your printer plot.

Next would be the naming of the file, you can leave it default or key in the preference name.

The Finish page gives you the option of editing the plotter configuration or calibrating the plotter.

Checking The Plotter Finally, your EPS plotter should be ready for use, double check that the file is created by selecting the tab File then go to Plot, from the pull down list of printer selecet the EPS plot file.

With all the setting properly config, you are now able to plot to scale.
