Drawing Sheets Issue

Kestrel2486Kestrel2486 Member Posts: 1 EDU
I have created a custom drawing from a dwt file I use with AutoCAD, but how do I centralise the border when I print, on the screen it looks OK but it will not print centrally. Any help would be appreciated.

    @Kestrel2486 I would recommend you follow a very good procedure here:

    Best Practices for Creating Native Onshape Drawing Templates - Onshape Learning Center

    Onshape drawings are not exactly like an AutoCAD drawing created from a DWT.  Generally you will have more predictable and robust behavior if an Onshape drawing generates the template.  You can certainly use DWG/DXF data as the basis for the Onshape template creation process - and that is covered in the resource I listed above.  Let me know if you have more questions.
