Customizing the printed appearance of plans and perspectives

In the same way that you change the colors, font, and line type of plan and perspective windows on the screen, you can customize their appearance in print.

Use the Print tab for schemes in the Appearance dialog to set the appearance settings for a plan or perspective you wish to print. See "Changing colors, font, and line type" for more information about appearance schemes and changing appearance settings.

If you want the printed plan or perspective to have the same appearance settings as what you see in the respective window, click Set Same As Screen on the Print tab. In most cases, you want:

  • background color in printing to be white (no printed background)
  • print font size to be smaller then the screen font
  • print line scale to be larger then on screen

To change the printed appearance of a plan or perspective

  1. Make the Plan or Perspective the active window.
  2. Choose View > Appearance.
  3. Specify options on the Print tab of the Appearance Settings dialog box and click OK.
