Print Configurations

Now in DraftSight, Print Configurations can be saved and applied to DWG files.  You can also apply these configuration files to different DWG files.  This allows you to print the DWG files with the custom settings you applied without having to set them again every time you want to print.  To be able to reuse settings from other DWG files is also a great benefit.  In addition, these files are portable and can be shared with other users as well.
