Who can tell me the detailed typesetting, drawing and printing steps of CAD?

Drawing Settings in 1.A4 (Landscape) Drawing

1) Create a new layer (to hide the viewport)

Create a new layer named layout and set it as the current layer.

2) Switch to layout

Click the "Layout 1" tab in the AutoCAD drawing interface, switch to the layout, and the "Page Setup" dialog box will pop up automatically, as shown in figure 1.

3) Set up printing equipment

In the printing device tab as shown in figure 1, configure the printer.

In the name drop-down list box, select the printing device to be applied according to the printer installed under the computer Windows system.

For example, if my computer uses an HP LaserJet 1020 laser printer to print A4 files, select HP LaserJet 1020 from the Name drop-down list. As shown in Figure 2:

4) Set the print drawing size

Click the Layout tab in the dialog box shown in Figure 1 to switch to the Layout tab, and set the paper size and other contents in this tab, as shown in Figure 3:

5) Set drawing margins.

This is very important. Sometimes the drawing scale does not meet the requirements, that is, the drawing margins are not well defined. Specific practices:

Click the Print Settings tab shown in figure 1 and switch to Printer Configuration.

Tab, click the Properties tab to open the printer configuration editor dialog box, as shown in Figure 4.

Select the Device and Document Settings tab in the Printer Configuration Editor dialog box, and select the option "Modify standard paper size (printable area)" in User-defined paper size and calibration. Select "A4" from the "Modify Standard Paper Size (Z)" drop-down list, as shown in Figure 5.

After setting, click the "Modify" tab to enter the "Custom Paper Size-Printable Area" tab (as shown in Figure 6).

According to the requirements of national standards, the top, bottom, left and right are 5mm and 25mm respectively; After setting, click Next to enter the Custom Paper Size-File Name tab. At this point, the default file name will appear under the PMP file name (F). Click Next to enter the Custom Paper Size-Finish tab, and click Finish to finish setting the printing area.

Click OK in the printer configuration editor to open the Modify Printer Configuration File dialog box, which displays the location and file name of the modified file. Click OK to return to the Page Setup tab, and then click OK to enter the viewport state of the layout 1 As shown in fig. 7.

In Layout 1, a dotted wireframe appears. If this wireframe is not like this (that is, it does not meet the requirements of the national standard), it means that the print area setting is incorrect. Choose Page Setup from the File menu and repeat this step until it meets the requirements.

6) Insert the title bar

Insert the company's custom title bar in Layout 1. Specific practices:

A. Select the Insert Block command to insert the complete title bar.

B The insertion point is: 0,0, and the ratio is 1: 1, so as to ensure that the inserted title bar coincides with the left line of the dotted line in "Layout 1". As shown in fig. 8.

If there is no coincidence, the insertion point is incorrect and should be adjusted appropriately.

7) Make a viewport and build a border.

A. Open the Layer Properties Manager and set layer 0 (or thick solid line layer) as the current layer.

B. Select the "One Viewport" command from the view menu. When the command window prompts: Specify the corner of the viewport, use the Snap Endpoint Tool to select and insert the top right corner of the title bar, and click Select; The prompt in the command window is: When specifying a diagonal point, type: 287,0, and press Enter (or OK) to complete the viewport setting.

At this point, the boundary line of the viewport completely coincides with the original dotted line of "Layout 1". As shown in fig. 9.

8) Method of setting drawing scale

A. Open the Properties dialog box, select the viewport boundary, and set it through the Standard Scale property in the Properties dialog box.

B. Double-click the boundary line of the viewport, switch to model space, type "z", and then type xp multiple of the required scale. For example: 1: 2, type 0.5XP, 1: 4, type 0.25xp and so on.

9) Print out the chart.

The scale when plotting is 1: 1.
