Issues with CAD drawing generation

First, confirm whether the “standard frame” you have drawn is standard; in other words, check if its length-to-width ratio is appropriate for printing paper. There is no suitable frame; consider scaling to an appropriate proportion. Then, in the printing scale option, select “Scale to paper space””

If printing at a proportional scale is desired, then the drawing should be created using the appropriate drawing frame corresponding to the size of the image that is to be printed. It’s possible to first draw the image outside the frame at a 1:1 scale, and then scale it down so that it fits within the frame. The scale used for scaling determines the scale at which dimensions should be marked.

Before printing, can’t you preview it first? Then adjust the scale of the image, and set options for printing such as centering the print or selecting which areas to print. In that way, such problems shouldn’t occur, and it will be convenient to decide which size of paper to use for printing

When drawing, one must consider factors such as the output scale, sheet size, and font size

Check your ratio settings; if they’re not right, adjust the image frame.

Our company has its own standard drawing frames; as long as the content fits within them, it can be printed properly, regardless of whether there is any elongation or anything like that

Thank you to the person above. The issue is that we always use a 1:1 scale for drawing. If we enlarge a diagram drawn in an A1 format by 20 times, and then choose to center it when exporting it, selecting the window option will show that the scale on the right side changes slightly – it’s no longer 20 but rather something like 20.1. If we set the scale back to 20 at this point, the border lines will disappear during previewing

Since the drawings are created on a proportional basis, you need to set up the page settings first before printing (this feature is available starting from version 2005). Let me use my own example to illustrate this (I use AutoCAD 2005 and AutoCAD 2008, and the settings are the same for both versions). After drawing the diagram, enlarge the drawing frame proportionally. Once everything is correct, click on \"File\" and then select \"Page Setup Manager\". A new dialog box will appear; choose \"Modify\" in this new dialog. At that point, the page setup dialog box will be displayed. There are several settings that must be modified; otherwise, the resulting diagram will not fill the entire paper. First, select the model of your printer ； Second, select the drawing size ； Third, in the printing scale options, select \"Fill the entire sheet\" directly. Once this option is selected, the scale field below it turns gray and cannot be modified ； Fourth, select the printing area; there are three options here: 1) Window, 2) Graphic boundaries, 3) Display (I*usually use the window) ； Fifth, select the printing offset; here I simply check the option for centering. Once centering is selected, the X and Y coordinates become gray and cannot be edited ； Sixth, select the graphic direction ； Seventh, preview. I always follow this order when generating images, and I’ve never encountered the situation mentioned by the original poster. This order is for reference only; if any other friends have better or simpler methods, I hope they can share them so I can learn from them. Thank you!

A printer cannot print the entire page. Didn’t manual drawing also require leaving margins before? Your margin should be the binding line; if you still can’t print a margin after leaving space for the binding line, then you can select your printer in the page settings, click on \"Properties\", open \"User-Defined Paper Size and Standards\", choose a custom paper size or modify the standard paper size. After that, select a custom paper type or pick the paper size for printing, and adjust the top, bottom, left, and right margins as needed. It is similar to modifying margins in a WORD file. I hope this can help you.

I think to create a picture frame, you first need to have a standard frame; otherwise, the proportions of the image you produce might not be what you want

Choose \"Fill the sheet\" when printing

For margin setting issues, choose a drawing that is slightly larger than the standard size, use the custom paper size settings to set the printable area to the standard size, select the appropriate scale, and give it a try to see if it works.

I think the reasoning given on the 6th floor can solve the problems encountered
