@Steven P You're right - like your example... (defun c:foo ( / p1 p2 p3 ) (command "_.CIRCLE" "_3P" (setq p1 (getpoint "\nFirst point : ")) (setq p2 (getpoint p1 "\nSecond point : ")) (setq p3 (getpoint p2 "\nThird point : "))) (princ p1) (princ p2) (princ p3) (princ) )

off the top of my head, something like: (defun c:test ( / pt) (command "circle" (setq pt (getpoint "Select Point")) pause ) (princ pt) )

I just discovered the workaround to display trailing zeros in Architectural unit dimension style: Just type a space in the Suffix. Then all the dimensions will display with the trailing zero, ie. 6'-0". I don't know why the trailing zeros won't display otherwise. AutoCAD is full of secret workarounds like this.

That's what was mentioned in the link I posted in my first response.

I don't know if this is an option or whether it works in Autocad (I use Bricscad). When printing a Layout (Using DWG To PDF.pc3 or whatever it is called in Autocad) if you set your viewport with the Visual Style to say Modeling instead of 2D Wireframe it creates everything in the viewport as a bitmap. Anything outside of the viewport (i.e. your Title Block) will still be vectors but the actual drawing is a bitmap. It would save a step creating a jpeg first, but as I say I don't know if it works the same in Autocad or if the resolution will be good enough without making a huge file. Bitmap PDF Test.pdf

Ex[lode all dashed lines , we had a dot linetype from a 3rd party software and it would make opening a dwg take minutes as it drew the dots, only thing though how big will your pdf end up ?
