AutoCAD LT switches from model space to paper space.
AutoCAD LT operates in paper space or in model space. You use paper space to create a finished layout of a drawing for printing. In paper space, you create floating viewports, which are windows containing different views of the model. By switching from paper space to floating model space, you can edit the model and views within the floating viewports. Floating viewports differ from tiled viewports, which split the screen into fixed model space views. Floating viewports are objects you create in paper space. Switching to paper space from the menu or from the status bar automatically turns off TILEMODE (tiled viewports). Before you use PSPACE on the command line, however, the TILEMODE system variable must be set to 0 (off).
Related Commands: MSPACE switches from paper space to a
model space viewport. MVIEW creates a new floating viewport
and turns on existing floating viewports. VPLAYER sets
the visibility for layers in specific viewports. ZOOM XP
scales each view relative to paper space units.
System Variables: TILEMODE controls paper space
access and viewport type. PSLTSCALE controls paper space
linetype scaling. VISRETAIN specifies precedence of settings
for xref layers. MAXACTVP specifies the maximum number
of viewports to regenerate. DIMLFAC controls scaling for
linear dimensions.
