Drawings in the Layout Book

Drawings are ARCHICAD views and external files that have been placed onto a Layout.

Drawings can be created out of views from the current project file, or imported from external ARCHICAD project files. External drawing and picture files as well as PDF files can also be placed on the layout. All these placed items are collectively called Drawings.

Note: Drawings can also be placed into Model Views. (See Drawings in Model Views.)

You can customize the size, scale, title and framing options for your drawings in the Drawing Settings dialog box.

See Drawing Settings.
