Question
I have a drawing that is in yellow on black backround. How do I change it to white on the black backround? Have tried the help section in my program but can't seem to get it done.

Answer
Hi-- Unfortunately, I am guessing a little what you mean, because the subject says ---Changing the color on a print --
but, of course, you dont print a black background.

If the drawing is all lines and arcs, no blocks, just window all objects and use the layer dropdown menu or the properties palette to change the color. If you are only changing the color to print it darker --
== save drawing, change color, print, and use UNDO to get the old color back.

Does this do it, or did you mean something else?

NOW, SORRY -- if you are asking a question that would have been covered in the first few hours of any AutoCAD class, it looks as if you are trying to figure the program out on your own.  THIS IS A HORRIBLE MISTAKE FOR ALL, EXCEPT THE 5% MOST CLEVER PEOPLE.
If you buy a good book and do the lessons, or take a class, you will save a world of trouble, and your drawings will be useable by others.
