Join Jim LaPier for an in-depth discussion in this video Printing, part of Learning Vectorworks (2014).
…Obviously, the end goal of most drafting endeavors is to…get black lines on white paper.…So let's take a look at the printing options for Vectorworks.…I'll go to File > Print and under the Vectorworks tab,…I have all the options specific for Vectorworks.…From here, I can set our resolution, as well as setting the gray level for…grayed classes and layers.…This means, any classes or…layers that are displayed grayed right now in the view, will be printed gray as well.…
I can choose to print patterns, at the onscreen resolution,…as opposed to the resolution set here, as they may be more detailed and…require a higher resolution.…I'll set the print dialog to automatically update my viewports prior to printing.…Lastly, I'm going to make sure to recalculate the worksheets,…prior to printing.…If you remember from the notes video, we created a worksheet, or…a report of the room names and sizes.…If this worksheet were inserted into a sheet as a schedule, I would want to…make sure that Vectorworks updated the information or recounted the items…
