NX 5: plotting a very large drawing
NX 5: plotting a very large drawing
(OP)
Hello all,
I am attempting to print a very large (~2 meter by 2 meter) drawing to full scale for my supervisor. The largest plotter where I work has a paper width of 34 inches. To achieve my goal, I would like to print the image as 4 'strips' and tape them together. Is this possible to do in NX 5 without trying to quarter it manually?
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
Dan

RE: NX 5: plotting a very large drawing
create drawing with the entire size export it to cgm
import this cgm into a new file.
create a drawings with the max paper height of your output device. Split the height extension on extra drawings
plot and patch work them together.
