Introduction

Overview

In Surpac you can create plots using:

• autoplot
• file-based plotting

Autoplot is essentially What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) plotting from the Surpac graphical viewport.  It is simple and easy to use.

File-based plotting allows you to perform more complex plotting functions.

You can use the Surpac Plotting window or Dassault Systèmes DraftSight™ to view and edit the data before printing or plotting it. DraftSight is useful for adding mark-up and outputting to .dwg and other file formats.
