Blocking a layout?
Blocking a layout?
(OP)
I would like to send a drawing to a surveyor with just the information in the layouts and not all of our drafting stuff. How do i do this with out going through everylayer and removing the stuff i dont want him to see. I would like to send a working drawing that is basically the same as what would be on our paper plans. I have tried blocking the paperspace layout, but it doesnt not contain the model space data. and vice versa.... Please someon help
thank you
thank you

that you trust or have him sign a statement
of confidentiality. You can send him a
pdf file or dwg file. The alternative is
to remove all of the things from the drawing
that you do not want him to see and rename it
or wblock all of the things you want him to
see and send him the wblock drawing under a
new name.

If you can provide him with the basic information needed, a basic outline should suffice.
A new drawing with the goodies erased should suffice?

Easy to do + widely accepted standard.
Done to scale.
Not much more use than a hardcopy if he wants to 'borrow' information from it.
However, to get consistent quality, you shoudl purchase ($$) a legal copy of Adobe Acrobat rather than relying on 3rd party printer drivers to make the .pdfs

If you don't want him to have the model, then .pdf export the layouts.
Go to download.com find a .pdf virtual printer driver, and your done.
