Hey Guys,

 

For those of you that create an Assembly Drawing, do you scale up the
outline/assemblies to better fit in the drawing?

 

For years I had used File -> Export -> IPF to create an Intermediate
Plot File for both Top and Bottom.

I would then use File -> Import -> IPF, then RMB to scale and mirror as
necessary.

 

Lately I've been using Manufacture -> Dimension/Draft -> Create Detail.

 

How do you create your Assembly Drawing? Is there another way (better?)
that I'm not aware of?

 

Thanks!
