Table Of Contents
By default, every initialized layout has a page setup associated with it. You
can initialize a layout by clicking on its tab to activate the previously unused
layout. A layout does not contain any plot settings before initialization. A
layout must be initialized (its paper size can be defined in the page setup to
any size other than 0 x 0) before it can be published. Once initialized, layouts
can be drawn upon, published, and added to sheet sets as sheets (after the
drawing has been saved). You can apply a named page setup saved with one
layout to another layout. This creates a new page setup with the same settings
as the first one.
If you want the Page Setup Manager to be displayed each time you begin a
new drawing layout, select the Show Page Setup Manager for New Layouts
option on the Display tab in the Options dialog box. If you don't want a
viewport to be automatically created for each new layout, clear the Create
Viewport in New Layouts option on the Display tab in the Options dialog
box.
