Multiple Pages in Master Layout in AC10

[Anonymous]

Hey people,

Do you guys remember back in AC9 in Plot Maker in the Settings for Master Layouts there was a command by where you could specify how many pages were going to be present...?

IE. You could say piece together six A4 pages and then place your drawing over it so that if you wanted to plot out something and didn't have access to a A1 plotter; you could essentially "jigsaw" it together via the A4 pages...

However in AC10 under the same section, instead of allowing you to increase the no. of pages, you get instead a matrix / grid table

Does anyone here know how to specify the multiple page feature in AC 10 in Master Layouts ?

Thanks in Advance !!!

other way up

set the master/layout size to the size of layout you want (the larger size) and print/publish to whatever paper size you have (smaller) . . . it will tile . . .

Got it, thanks. I was trying to do it all from the master settings dialogue until realising from your comments that i need to use the print command from the file menu to actually tile it. I knew i was missing something simple

Thanks.

Yes, the only problem is if you want to print the tiled pages in an order different from the order the prointer prints it for you. No solution for that unfortunately.
I migrated a Project from 6.5 to AC10 and was hit with this problem.
I needed it to print starting from upper left, going down, then right.
The printer always starts from lower left, going right, then up.
No solution for this scenario.
