Important considerations for plan printing
Plans need to be correctly scaled for the desired size before being printed. The right paper or material, as well as the capability of the printer, can make a big difference in the quality and accuracy of the printed plan.
In many cases, the plans not only have to meet business and client standards but also legal requirements. For example, architectural plans will be subject to local building codes and regulations.
This is why it’s incredibly important to ensure that plans are vetted, approved, and proofed multiple times before submitting them for printing, to avoid costly project delays.
