Procedure

Quick Reference

To import named page setups from another drawing

1. Click File menu Page Setup Manager.At the Command prompt, enter pagesetup.
2. In the Page Setup Manager, click Import.
3. In the Select Page Setup From File dialog box, select a drawing file from which you want to import one or more named page setups. Click Import.
4. In the Import Page Setups dialog box, select one or more page setups to import. Click OK.

   If a page setup with the same name already exists in the drawing, you can redefine the settings of the existing one with the settings of the imported page setup, or you can cancel the operation.

   The imported page setups are displayed in the Page Setup Manager in the list of page setups.

   NoteYou can import both model space and layout page setups at the same time. However, an imported model space page setup is shown in the Page Setup Manager only if the model tab was current when you opened the Page Setup Manager. Similarly, an imported layout page setup is shown in the Page Setup Manager only if a layout tab was current when you opened the Page Setup Manager.
5. In the Page Setup Manager, click Close.
