dwgPlotX

Frequently Asked Questions

Does dwgPlotX work without AutoCAD?

No. dwgPlotX integrates with AutoCAD to operate on AutoCAD drawings. Hence AutoCAD is required for it to work.

When I try to start dwgPlotX or try to give the Plot command, "Unable to Connect to AutoCAD" message box appears.

It happens when, due to any reason, dwgPlotX is unable to start AutoCAD. It can be because of multiple versions of AutoCAD installed on your system. Note that dwgplotX works in conjunction with AutoCAD. So please ensure that AutoCAD is able to start independently and keep it running in the background before running dwgPlotX.

Does dwgPlotX work with AutoCAD LT versions.

dwgPlotX is designed in Visual Basic, which is not supported by the LT versions of AutoCAD. Hence, dwgPlotX does not work with AutoCAD LT.

dwgPlotX hangs on startup/ shows error.

Repair/reinstall your AutoCAD installation and then relaunch dwgPlotX.

Plot does not come correctly.

Check the setting of the plotter/printer in the windows "Printers and Faxes" folder that you are using. Make sure that plot comes OK when plotting manually from AutoCAD.
