Several options are available for printing out composite drawings:
-
Printing out a drawing that is currently open.
-
Background printing of one or more drawings from the Electrical Index.
-
Background printing of one or more drawings from the EDE.
Print Out an Open Composite Drawing
-

Background Printing of One or More Composite Drawings
You can print out one or more drawings without opening them.
If one of the selected drawings is out of date, the software informs you of this
fact and prompts you to select an option for printing: either the up-to-date or the
out-of-date version of the drawing.
-
In the Electrical Index, select one or more drawings in the List View pane.
OR
In the EDE, select one or more drawings that you want to print.
-
Select File > Print
. Alternatively, you can also right-click the selected drawings and select Print.
-
On the Print dialog, select your print settings and then select OK.
If you have opened a composite drawing but you want to print out a number of other
composite drawings, make sure that application has its focus in the List View pane of the Electrical Index and not in the open drawing. If you select in the open drawing, this will shift the
focus to the drawing and the application will print out the open drawing and not the
drawings that you selected in the List View pane of the Electrical Index.
