Hello:
How can plot my planes in pdf vers. 7 . Try to print them mere the impression scale does not correspond to the real one, use a plotter HP 450C. in page size D 22 x 34 in.
Gracias

This is similar to a recent discussion. I believe you will need to take two steps because V7 cannot print in a Windows environment.
I'm speculating a bit here but, assuming you work in Windows, this is worth a try, particularly as it costs nothing. You need two applications, PDF995 and VoloView Express. Both are freebies but I'm not sure if Volo is still available. It is/was an Autodesk product.
1. export DXF or DWG from DCad7
2. open file in Volo
3. print to PDF995
You specify the scale in Volo and the paper size in PDF995. PDF995 looks like any other printer driver. You get a print preview in Volo. There should be no problems with scale.
Even if Autodesk no longer provides Volo, I'm sure it can be turned up somewhere.

Are asking about Adobe Reader 7.0? If so, set Page Scaling to None then check mark "Choose paper source by PDF page size".
See below. does this help?
