AutoCad lt 2000 to Chief X1

[Clare White]

Hello

I need help making a transistion from AutoCad lt 2000 to Chief X1. I am doing mainly doing plumbing schematic which I want to use Cheif but my all training is not in place yet. Everytime I print out from Autocad to PDF files it is so unpedictable, and makes no sense. Where as Chief printing is a no problem.

Any one have any insite?

Thanks Clare

Hi Clare, what program are you using to print to PDF?

Andy.

Perhaps this is a fine point but wouldn't a problem printing from autocad be best addressed on an autocad user forum? They probably would have more experience and be better equiped to answer your question.

On the flip side why not import the dwg into Chief and print from there?

I'm pretty efficient at Auto CAD Lt (Still a beginner on Chief) I'd love to help but not sure I understand your question.

are you print from paper space or modle space?

Perhaps its the lineweights.
