I have 5 drawings that all have the same model (basically a topo map of a 2 mile radius) but each have unique info, i.e. monitoring well locations, utility info, etc. The client wants a zoomed in view of a 1 block radius and I need all 5 drawings to have an identical zoom. How do I adjust my viewports in each drawing so they are zoomed in to the exact same place?

 

I'm using AutoCAD 2007 for this.

Make copies of your Layout tabs, copy & paste with basepoints the viewports or draw a rectangle in modelspace and match the viewport.

Use ZOOM > OBJECT and pick an object that you want to define the center of the view, then change your viewport scale as needed (the view will remain centered on that object)

Thanks SLW210 and nestly! SLW210: your method worked the best. Thanks again!

AutoCAD MAP3D and the mapbook tools could do that. : )
