Reuse an existing Layout in another drawing without assuming all project-specific references will transfer cleanly. The reliable approach is to work from a named Page Setup, change only the setting that controls this task, then Preview one representative Layout before applying the change more widely.
Import a named Page Setup from a DWT when an existing project drawing is missing the current office plotting standard. Import the setup first, apply it to one test Layout, then verify its external printer/PC3 and CTB/STB dependencies.
