Shaded view lights in drawing

Shaded view lights in drawing

Shaded view lights in drawing

(OP)
I need to print a 1:1 scale shaded drawing of my model. When modeling, I have set up the lights (Render Tab>Scene>lights) so that the shading of the model is EXACTLY how I need the colors and shadows to look from the front view. However, when I go to the drawing of this part, using the same view, the lighting shadows are completely different.

I am not aware of a way to print 1:1 (precisely) from model space, and I don't know how to adjust the lighting of the shaded view in drawing space.

Any tips? Thank you in advance~

RE: Shaded view lights in drawing

Do a screen capture or render to a TIFF and then open and scale it in Photoshop, Gimp, or any other editor.

The drawing team is not on board with the model team for shading. There is no way to adjust the drawing view lighting.
