Review your drawing before downloading it

Choose how dimensions appear, tidy up a label, and download your drawing. Here is the whole workflow in Studio.

1. Open the drawing

Open the mounting plate in Studio, or use your own part. In the right-hand Export tab, click Drawing (PDF), then Generate preview.

Studio Drawing review with the mounting plate preview and dimension-style selector — The sheet and its controls, side by side.

2. Choose a style

Use Dimension style, then Refresh preview. These three drawings show the same mounting plate.

Mounting plate with baseline dimensions measured from a common origin — Baseline: measure each position from the same origin.

Mounting plate with chain dimensions between successive hole centres — Chain: show the spacing between neighbouring features.

Mounting plate with symmetric dimensions about the centreline — Symmetry: show matching features either side of the centreline.
