Cannot select page layouts in autocad

Issue

When you created a new drawing based on a drawing template, there were no page layouts available for you to select.

Solution

Page layouts are stored in your drawing (or dwt file) under a model space named page setup.
To create a new page setup model space

1. At the command prompt, enter _PAGESETUP.
2. In the Page Setup Manager, click New.
3. Enter a new page setup name.
4. In the Page Setup - Model dialog box, select the parameters you want.
5. Click OK.

You will now have a page layout available for selection.
