Paper Sizes Tab

 
This section defines the minimum margins for all paper sizes.  The width and height for the User paper sizes are also defined here.  When defining paper sizes,
width must be less than the length.  By unchecking a specific paper size it will be removed from the list in the AcroPlot display.
All dimensions are for the paper in portrait mode in inches.
 
  • If Pc3 file support has not been enabled, the margins may actually be 1/8", forced by AutoCAD, even if they are set to 0.0" in the setup dialog.  
  • Up to 9 custom paper sizes can also be defined.  
  • The standard maximum width or height of the paper is limited to 50" or 1270 mm.
  • If large papersizes are enabled in the AcroPlot Admin then papersizes can be defined up to 100"x100".

Checkboxes for paper sizes to display

When checked the appropriate paper size will be displayed in the AcroPlot interface and will be available to the user to select.  This allows you to filter out the papersizes that you do not normally use.
2

Set All Margins

This will set the margins for all of the paper sizes to the values set in the margin textboxes.
3

Margin Padding

This allows a small distance to be defined to prevent large titleblock borders from being cutoff when plotting the extents.  Internally AutoCAD does not always take into account the line width when it calculates the extents of the drawing.
