Defining Default Properties for a Plot

Print styles provide an easy and flexible way of defining default print definition properties for both Print Organizer and the Print dialog.

Using print styles, you can:

  • store print definition properties so that they can be easily reused
  • enforce drawing standards by turning on/off display parameters, using a particular scale, or specifying a pen table
  • establish properties that pertain to the entire print set, such as printer name, or printer driver configuration file
  • apply print definition properties automatically when creating print definitions or changing printers
  • save time by reducing the need to navigate through dialogs entirely

See Print Styles, for more information about creating and applying print styles.
