I cannot figure out how i can print ortho's from stuff i made in lightwave.
moving the camera to top side etc is no good, since i get a perspective view.
what i need is a rendered version of the top, bottom, front, back, left and right side view planes in shaded solid on a white background.
This for physical modeling purposes

You have two choices...

1/ If you are using LW 9+ you can use the orthographic camera (select it in the camera properties panel).

2/ If you are using earlier versions of LW, move your camera a long way away from your model and then zoom in using the Zoom Factor (again in camera properties), this will minimize perspective effects.

Hope this helps.
