Open your .dwg drawing in autoCAD. Open Photoshop and start a new drawing. Match the autoCAD drawing size with the photoshop page that is open. Select the .dwg drawing, copy and paste into the photoshop page.

Hey Iois,
I dont know if I made that clear enough for you.
Do the following:

1. Click Layout 1 in AutoCAD and set printer to 'none' and set plot style to 'monochrome'. Here, the viewport should appear in the layout with the drawing in monochrome.

2. open photoshop and start new drawing. Make background transparent.Zoom 100% 9full size) and adjust the image borders until the full image is visible on screen

3. Go back to AutoCAD drawing and zoom (in/out) in the layout in paperspace untile the viewport appeaers to be the same size as the blank page of your photoshop page.

4. Simply copy the autoCAD drawing and paste into photoshop.

Hope this is more clear to you.
