Question Any turbo CAD experts out there?

I've been given a drawing in turbocad (.dwg) and I need to save it as an .eps file. I can do this as there is an option via save as but the problem is that it doesn't save it in the same dimension i.e. 1:1

The original CAD drawing is on A3.

Help?

From Microstation I just use an EPS printer driver and when it prints the file it saves it out as an EPS. Could you do the same? When you print I have the option to specify the scale.

Is it a paper space / model space problem? Could also be the printer is not set up correctly.

Oh!

I'm a total novice at this and I've managed to adjust a drawing in paper 1 and I need to send it to a printer (priniting company) as an EPS urgently. The drawing is on an A3 paperspace IIRC and I saved it as an EPS file. The print company could only open it as a small picture 2inch x 2inch or so. They need a 1:1 EPS file! Arrgghh!

More help please!
