Is there a way to convert something created in model space to a paper space object?

I accidently created all the abutter/adjoiner information in model space and would rather it be in paper space...

If you are using AutoCAD and have express tools, there is a change space command.

WBLOCK everything you want in PAPERSPACE into a temporary .DWG, switch to PAPERSPACE, and INSERT that .DWG.

I've got a LiSP file that will do that, if you're interested.

Sorry 'bout that. We still use AutoCAD Release 14, where it works just fine....

Carlson stand-alone does not run LISP routines.

You probably can't see the block because you need to scale it down 1/the modelspace viewport's scale.
