Is there a way to make a presentation drawing with a jpeg image. Front elevation with smaller size elevations around it. Like a 3d multidrawing?

You can create .jpg images from any 3d view, and add them to a drawing (but not a planset).

You can import images into a plan set also.

Thanks for that Martin ... I didn't realise plansets had an image import, I've been trying to drag them onto the planset page - really handy to know.

Plan set? Never used it. Ok I created a multi 3d image in plan set. Very cool. I don't have a printer hooked up to my laptop so I don't know if I can print it or not. When I click print theres nothing there.I suppose if my plotter was hooked up it would print?

This is what my presentation elevations look like. This is a project I am working with in conjunction with another design firm. I pulled all the individual jpgs into plan set.
This is also using live elevations and model paint

Thank you. Yes I took what I learned from Keith Almond on his live view elevations and modified it to create this presentation set. Rather pleased with it on my first pass. Not quite the 3D view but I don't have to spend so much time on landscaping if not being paid for it

Looks good, Tom ... and I still believe it's quicker than trying to draw/redraw/edit all the "drawn" elevations.

Yes, I export them as a PDF and send them out. You can view them fine in the PDF but printing causes some glitches. That I believe is more Adobe related.

If your size is limited on the plansets, then you haven't set the size correctly when you created the planset. Make sure you set the page size to what you want.

Tom, I've never had issues printing plansets or printing the PDF's created from them.

It wasn't on my printer Keith, it was on my client who was having trouble so most likely "user error".
