.dwg to consultant

[Tom Krowka]

This is my first time sending dwg's to a consultant. What is the best way to export the .pln. It has three floors. Will all the floors be overlaid on top of each other? I'd rather send the engineer a separate drawing for each floor.

Thanks.

1. Get his DWG template and use it as a translation template. Set up the Translator.

2. Create a view set with hairlines and empty fills if the consultants does not want any fills (very common).

3. Set up the publishing set and save to DWGs. If saving from ArchiCAD it should go plan by plan (section, elevation, whatever)

4. If publishing from PlotMaker, make sure your consultant understands Paperspace
