    Default AutoCAD - DWF output rotation doesn't match sheet rotation

    When I plot from AutoCAD, using the Autodesk DWF Printer, as 'Window' the image previews as expected, but the paper is rotated 90 degrees in the dwf output file. If I switch from Portrait to Landscape, the paper is correct, but the image is rotated 90 degrees. In summary, the output image never matches the plot preview.

    Whussup with that?

    Question Re: AutoCAD - DWF output rotation doesn't match sheet rotation

    Hi

    Which Autodesk DWF Printer are you using?

    What version of AutoCAD are you using?

    What size is your drawing border / frame within AutoCAD?

    What paper size are you selecting when outputting to DWF?

    Have a good one, Mike

    If you are using the Autdoesk DWF Writer for 2D which shows up on you system as a printer and are using this as the destination for the Page Setup in your Layout, you will get less than optimal DWF files. You should use the DWF6 ePlot pc3 file in your page setups.

    DWF6 ePlot. Got it. For some reason I thought that was the older version of the driver. Should've tried it. Thanks!
