A tutorial about using live paint can be found here. More can be done to improve drawing, such as using the live paint tool. Below is a basic black and white line drawing of a section of my model.
Now that you know how to edit the appearance of the lines, you can edit them however you want. Right: Changed to 3 points thickness and black. Left: Original lines at 2.88 points in thickness and orange. Then open up the stroke, color, and any other panels to adjust their appearance. This selects all of the content in that layer. To edit the lines, click on the open circle to the right of the layer name. Color, thickness and linetype are the main properties that can be changed. Now that all of the lines are in separate layers, the lines in each layer can easily be adjusted all at once.
The layers in Illustrator should match that of the AutoCAD file. The artboard will most likely have to be resized to contain the drawing. I want my drawing to be at 1/8″ = 1′, and the AutoCAD file is in inches so 96 (8 x 12) units = 1 inch.
Color assignments in CTB files use AutoCAD Index (256) colors. Objects or layers have been assigned a True Color (RGB) value. This occurs also when creating PDF files. This occurs also when previewing the plot. Open up the 2010 version file with Illustrator and the DXF/DWG option box will appear. When plotting a file in black and white (monochrome) or grayscale using a CTB file in AutoCAD, objects are plotted in color instead. Open the AutoCAD file with Adobe Illustrator Save the file as a 2010 version, as Illustrator cannot open later versions.Ģ. Software Required: AutoCAD, Adobe IllustratorĬlean up your AutoCAD file so it only has the geometry to be opened in Illustrator. The range of available GIF colors is from 2 (black and white) to 256 while reducing the number of colors leads to a decrease in the file size.This tutorial will show the workflow I go through in taking a finished AutoCAD drawing and opening it up with Adobe Illustrator for the purpose of further editing it for use in a floor plan, section, or diagram. Reducing the number of colors required to create an image is provided by removing shades unnecessary to perform this process. Scan-line data is compressed to the smallest size. Interlaced data storage is also possible. Thanks to the Lempel-Ziv-Welch algorithm, the format handles graphic files with repeating sections well, particularly images with a large number of single-color pixels horizontally. This ensures the preservation of high-quality pictures. The extension uses the LZW algorithm to carry out a parallel process with the removal of segments containing insufficient information. The format was developed by Compuserve specialists, especially for its use in the web environment, which provided broad public access to data on such files. Many applications open the extension to view and process images and video content installed on PCs and mobile devices regardless of OS. Due to this, it is possible to convert to other formats while preserving the original image properties. The process of compressing files in GIF does not affect the quality in any way, as there is no loss because of the compression technique. They use scan-line images with the depth parameters up to 256 colors of the RGB palette. Such files are used to develop web advertising with sequentially changing pictures and the graphics shell of video files. It also supports transparent views of various animations. GIF, Graphics Interchange Format, is one of the most popular bitmap image formats on the World Wide Web, allowing you to share images.
