Hello all,

My name is Peter from the Netherlands and i am new to this forum. I recently installed NanoCAD and want to use it with my old Roland DXY 1300 penplotter (A3 size) wich i converted into a vinyl cutter
In Autocad i could easely plot from paperspace to the right scale. From NanoCAD i plot (even with the same template file) only a4 size. I can't get it to plot A3. The settings are correct, drivers are installed (win XP) and it works correctly with Autocad but not with Nanocad. Does anyone have a suggestion what to do?

Kind regards,

Peter.

Peter,

nanoCAD 5 has some problems with plot.
Try to create custom papersize (see the image below) with your own sizes. Create the same papersize in your plotter,
then print.

Thank you for your response and advice. I will try it and if that isn't working maybe a new version of nanocad will solve the problem?

Kind regards,

Peter.
