                    (*) only when :FACTOR is specified
                    (**) only for UNIX 
            (***) only when orientation type  :USER is specified
            (****) only for NT

Options

:OUTPUT specifies what is to be plotted:
- :DRAWING plots the entire drawing.
- :SHEET plots the active sheet.
- :VIEWPORT plots the current viewport.
- :BOX plots box selected by 2 points.
:CONTENTS specifies contents to be plotted:
- :VISIBLE plots only visible elements of specified output
- :ALL plots ALL elements of specified output
:SCALE determines how to scale the plot:
- :FIT scales the plot to fit on the plotter page.
- :FACTOR scales the plot by a specific factor.
:FACTOR specifies the factor by which to scale the plot.
:POSITION specifies how to position the plot on the plotter page:
- :CENTER positions the plot in the center of the page.
- :LEFT positions the plot at the lower left of the page.
:PAPER_SIZE specifies the size of the plotter paper, which can be one of the following:

:A0 :A1 :A2 :A3 :A4 :A5 :A :B :C :D :E :USER

"A0" "A1" "A2" "A3" "A4" "A5" "A" "B" "C" "D" "E"

If :USER is specified, the following options define the paper size:
- :USER_FORMAT_WIDTH specifies the paper width.
- :USER_FORMAT_HEIGHT specifies the paper height.
:ORIENTATION specifies how to orientate the plot on the plotter page:
- :LANDSCAPE orients the plot as landscape.
- :PORTRAIT orients the plot as portrait.
- :USER orients the plot by user defined angle.
:PLOT_ANGLE specifies angle for drawing orientation.
:TRANSF_LABEL specifies name of pen transformation.

- :ACCEPT accept changes and return back to dialog.
:DEVICE specifies the name of the plotter.
:DESTINATION specifies the plotter location.
:SHOW_DIALOG specifies if NT - Plot Dialog will be open.

When to use

Use this action to plot a drawing, sheet, viewport or specified box to a named plotter.
