You can apply contour labels after the contour plot has been exported to the AutoCAD drawing. The labeling commands are accessed from the Tools menu. The following options are available:

• End—Allows you to apply labels to one end, both ends, or any number of selected insertion points. After selecting this labeling option, AutoCAD will prompt you to Select Contour to label. After selecting the contour to label, AutoCAD prompts for an Insertion point. Click in the drawing view to place labels at specified points along the contour. When prompted for an Insertion point, clicking the Enter key once will prompt you to select point nearest the contour endpoint. Doing so will apply a label to the end of the contour closest to the area where you clicked. Clicking the Enter key twice when prompted for an Insertion point will apply labels to both ends of the contour.
• Interior—This option applies labels to the interior of a contour line. You will be prompted to select the contour to be labeled, then to select the points along the contour line where you want the label to be placed. Any number of labels can be placed inside the contour in this way. Clicking the label grip and dragging will move the label along the contour line.
• Group End—Choosing this option opens the Elevation Increment dialog box. The value entered in this dialog box determines which of the contours selected will be labeled. If you enter 2, only contours representing a value that is a multiple of 2 will be labeled, and so on. After clicking OK in this dialog box, you will be prompted to select the Start point for a line. Contours intersected by the line drawn thusly will have a label applied to both ends, as modified by the Elevation Increment that was selected.
• Group Interior—Choosing this option opens the Elevation Increment dialog box. The value entered in this dialog box determines which of the contours selected will be labeled. If you enter 2, only contours representing a value that is a multiple of 2 will be labeled, and so on. After clicking OK in this dialog box, you will be prompted to select the Start point for a line.
• Change Settings—Allows you to change the Style, Display Precision, and Font Height of the contour labels.
• Delete Label—Prompts to select the contour from which labels will be deleted, then prompts to select the labels to be removed.
• Delete All Labels—Prompts to select which contours the labels will be removed from, then removes all labels for the specified contours.
