Rotated viewports

[rschaff]

using C3d 2010, hp 1055. rotated viewports using ucs, z, establish rotation, type in plan, Usual stuff Then I try to plot. It spools so slow, 5 Hrs and still waiting, up to 30 MB. Selected spool in computer no help. Pdf files are horrible. There is a large .sid file in the drawing. There are 2 plan views in each sheet trying to plot one at a time. And help would be appreciated.

try plotting to EPS, and then import the EPS in Acrobat. If one doesn't have a Acrobat "job.options" with same papersize and orientation, make that first. Then choose it at "options".
PDF-export in Acad yields enormous files, especially if the plot includes bitmaps. With EPS as "in between" will give you fine results, it works also if you have (too) many viewports on the layout.
