Plotting in RFEM and RSTAB

Is it also possible to plot from RFEM and RSTAB?


Answer:

Yes, it is. This is possible as a direct plot on a network plotter or a local plotter, provided that this plotter is installed as a Windows printer. Another option would be to plot to a file.

Direct Plot Printing

Select the graphic to be plotted, then click the printout icon in RFEM or RSTAB. It is necessary to make the following settings in the Graphic Printout dialog box:

  • Print Immediately
  • Graphic Scale: Window filling
  • Graphic Picture Size: Use full page height
  • Tab Options: All colored

After clicking OK, the printout dialog box appears where you can select the installed plotter. Then, define the sheet size in the properties of this driver.

Plot to File

To do this, select the Print to File check box in the printout dialog box mentioned above, where you specify the printer. Thus, a *.prn file is created. If you then rename this file to an *.hgl file in Explorer, it can be imported by an image editing program and sent to the plotter.
