Sketchup LayOut

ZipGUN

Anyone using this LayOut thing? The beta version comes with Sketchup pro.

Does anyone know: is it possible to make 24x36 sheets on this software with one's own company title block?

First glance, all I see are 11x17 templates, and am not sure if you can set up larger sheets?

A thank you, makeA.

a lot of the reason I got Pro was to make big sheets... all those 11x17 templates had me wondering...

Remember to set the resolution to at least 200 dpi

I always print to PDFs (and then print them) but they are bloated so I use a compression program called PDF shrink (but I am on a Mac)

How does a computer program resolve an issue with a contractor? A 2x4 maybe... ;-)

3"x6" is our standard - that's a good way to keep the peace

Am back on this title block in Sketchup Layout thing -- anyone know the best way to import an office's title block into Layout (file type, etc.)? Thanks...

Anyway you want. EPS is good. VEctor art reduces the file size
