Anchor160160A step-by-step guide to setting page size and drawing scale.
Note: This is not exactly the same as the Page Setup used for printing, but any relevant parameters you set in this wizard will appear in the Page Setup. See Page Setup.
If you selected Page Setup Wizard in the New TurboCAD LTE Drawing window, the wizard opens automatically. You can also access it via File / Page Setup Wizard.In the first page you can choose between Engl Anchor162162ishEnglish and Metric units.


On the second page you can set the type of unit you want to use - architectural (1'-3"), decimal (3.75 ft.), scientific, etc. You can also specify the main unit (inches, feet, yards) and the precision of the units.


The th Anchor163163ird third page contains options for paper size and orientation - these are used when printing. You can also enter drawing information such as title, author, and comments.


The fourth page enables you to set the pri Anchor164164nting printing scale. This is the size of the objects when printed, relative to their actual size specified in the drawing.


The fifth page enables you to create a de Anchor165165fault default viewport for mapping the Model Space drawings onto the paper sheet as defined in Paper Space. When printing the default viewport from Paper Space, you get a hard copy of the Plan view of the current drawing because the Plan view is the default view for Model Space. Image Removed
The sixth and final page enables you to save the sett Anchor166166ings settings for future drawing or to restore the initial settings. Settings can be edited in the DCExplorer Palette (see DCExplorer Palette.).
