Jake,
Corel will do the job. Go to Print Preview, Print Option then Layout.Quote:
So with corel you can print large drawings on to many A4 sheets?
There you'll see the Print Tiled pages. An example attached.
BTW - smart to rotate your object to optimize the number of pages.
Good luck!
It worked! I cant believe it!
For some reason the drawing was scaled down on the version of CAD I have.
The correct dimensions are 3465.87mm wide, 2488.2mm long and about 2048.5 tall I think, as Phil said in his thread on the 3D drawings he did.
On my CAD it put them to 346.587mm 248.82mm and 204.85mm, I checked that my units were not in centimeters and they were not, so all I did was scale the drawing up by 10 times and it was fine. I dont know why this happened. So then I saved a copy as a DXF file and opened it on Corel Draw. Tiled the drawing on print settings and walla it worked. I have some tinkering to do like setting over laps to align them correctly but other than that its great.
Also what it great is that the drawing is in layers so if I wanted, I could just look at the cross-sections or verticals, or even the windows. This makes it much easier as I can print of the cross-sections alone and make those then move onto the other parts.
Thanks again to all.
Regards to Phil for the excellent drawing ;)
Jake.
