Techniques for establish optimal values of dimensioning variables used in correct printing of the technical drawing

Abstract

The achievement, with the computer graphics help, by using AutoCAD software, of the technical drawings is apparently a well-known issue by many of users. But the multitude of stages that lead, finally to the printed form of a technical drawing, starting with the loading and establishing the properties of the layers and ending with the printing process, makes this action to be not an easy task. From practical experience, the authors know the fact that between all the stages required to obtain the printed form of a drawing the phases that may pose the most problems are in number of three. The first is the one that refers to the choosing a standard format for printing. The second takes into account the case when the users can not represent or represent incorrectly, on the same format, multiple representations using different scales. Finally, the third concerns the situation in that the users can't indicate the representation scale. Taking to account these inconvenient, the authors have developed a working way that comes to support of users and facilitate the understanding process of the stages listed above.
