ISO template for AutoCAD 2008 - Calibration test


The configuration of the AutoCAD/printer system shall be verified in
order that, when the files produced are exchanged, they give visually
equivalent drawings both on display and printer. In order to ensure this
correspondence, the ISO Central Secretariat has prepared a test to be
used for calibration.

The ISO Central Secretariat production method comprises the following 4-
step sequence:

1) a DWG file is printed (via AutoCAD) as a PS file;
2) this PS file is converted to EPS by adding a %%BoundingBox directive;
3) this EPS file is embedded into a document (Word) file;
4) the document file is printed into a PS file which is converted into a
PDF file via Acrobat Distiller 6.

The file "Tableau des couches.pdf" has been produced in the way
described above from the files "Tableau des couches.doc" and
"Ligne*.dwg".

Please generate using your own production method a PDF from the source
files provided and compare the result with the printed copy of the
attached file "Tableau des couches.pdf" - if necessary, the ISO Central
Secretariat can send you a printed copy of the reference file by post.

If discrepencies are noted, adapt your local configuration, if possible,
or report the problem(s) to the ISO Central Secretariat at the following
e-mail address:
