What Revit Wants
Want to try something completely different?
Start the Magnifier tool in Windows, set scale to 100%, then go to settings and enable “Turn on color inversion”.
If you have a CAD user who doesn’t like the change to the Revit UI, maybe this will help them? 🙂
At command prompt, type STARTUP and hit Enter. Type 2 and hit Enter.
When you close AutoCAD and then re-open it, you will be greeted with a nice, clean screen with no drawing opened.
After trying many free PDF Writers over the years, I have found CutePDF Writer to be the best.
