Question
Kindly Help me regarding this.
How can I print two different drawings of AutoCAD 2007 in one A0 page.

Answer
Hi -- I would XREF drawing A into drawing B, then make a new layout in drawing B to show the xref'd A in one viewport, B in the other. If I were printing from model space or A did not belong with B, I would put the xref  A off to the side of B, not overlaid to the drawing elements of B.

Or -- print both to pdf and use a program allowing you to print 2 images side by side. (may lose detail)
