Using Layouts to Set Up a Print - AutoCAD 2011 and AutoCAD LT 2011: No Experience Required - page 756

FiGuRE 14.61 Four layout tabs sequentially numbered for each of the
elevation drawings
TIP to quickly navigate between layout tabs, press Ctrl+page Up or
Ctrl+page Down. page Up will cycle to the right, and page Down will cycle
to the left. as an added bonus, this shortcut also works with worksheets in
Microsoft excel.
You have now created all of the layouts necessary to document your cabin in a
construction document set. Although these layouts are saved in the A-100.dwg and
A-200.dwg drawings, these new layouts are not yet part of your AutoCAD sheet set.
Readers using AutoCAD need to add these new layouts to the My Cabin sheet
set. AutoCAD LT users should skip the next exercise because Sheet Set Manager
is only available in the full version of AutoCAD.
Adding new Layouts to Sheet Set Manager
Refer to the “Adding Existing Drawings to a Sheet Set” section if you need
to refresh your memory on how to do this. To summarize the procedure:
1. Right-click on the Architectural subset, and choose Import Layout As
Sheets.
2. Browse to and select the A-100.dwg and A-200.dwg files.
3. Verify that the layouts you added to the A-100.dwg and A-200.dwg files
are checked (see Figure 14.62), and click the Import Checked button.
The A-101 and A-201 layouts should have the status “This layout is
already part of a sheet set - not available for import.” Because one layout
in each drawing is already part of the sheet set, the four new layouts dis-
play the status “Warning: this layout may belong to another sheet set.”
Renaming and Renumbering Sheets in Sheet Set Manager
Each of the newly created layouts is now part of the My Cabin sheet set.
Because these layouts were not created using Sheet Set Manager, but
rather by copying existing layouts, their name follows a default naming template
