When I use plot command to print Acad14, I encounter the Autocad message:
" Dialog too large to fit on screen
Request size= (724,384)
Maximum size=(640,480) "
Please help me, Thanks!

Obvious you use a display resolution of 640 x 480. The plot dialog of AutoCAD is bigger then this resolution an therefor can not be displayed. To show the dialog you must change resolution of your screen to a value higher then the dialog needs; or you use the command line version of the polt command by typing "-plot"

I believe the "-plot" is only available in ACAD 2000i or higher.
So I do believe "NET" needs to set "filedia" to 0 . . . to accomplish a plotting session without dialog boxes.

After you're done, set it back to 1 (filedia).
