 * Switch to the [[Image:Workbench_TechDraw.svg|24px]] TechDraw Workbench
 * Press the [[Image:TechDraw_PageTemplate.svg|16px]] New Pick button.
 * Select the A4_Portrait_ISO7200TD template. A new tab will open in your FreeCAD window, showing the new page.
 * In the tree view (or in the model tab), select the chair model. It will most likely be named something like "Open CASCADE STEP translator."
 * Press the [[Image:TechDraw_View.svg|16px]] New View button.
 * A View object will be created on our page. Select the view object in the tree view, and then give the view the following properties in the data tab of the combo view:
 * Under the Base category:
 * X: 70 mm
 * Y: 120 mm
 * Rotation: 0
 * Scale: 0.1
 * Under the Projection category (hit the drop down arrow to modify the x, y, and z components of these properties individually):
 * Direction: [0 0 1]
 * XDirection: [0 -1 0] (Change the y field first, then the x field)
 * We now have a nice top view of our chair. Hit the [[Image:Techdraw-toggleframe.svg|16px]] Toggle button to turn the View frames, labels, and vertices off.
