Bill Tillman Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I have limited experience with the PUBLISH command relying mostly on default settings. This morning I have 120 CAD files from and architect that I need to publish to PDF. Each CAD file has only the generic settings in the page setup. I need each of the 120 pages to use the same settings for page setup, size and plot style. The first hurdle I face is that each CAD file contains a single layout tab titled "Sheet" so as I add all of them to the publish window I have to manually change the name of each one on the fly. Is there a way to speed this up? I setup a new page layout and then select all the pages and assign this page layout to all of them. But this is rather laborious and I'm hoping there is a faster way to handle this. These files are from one of the large Architect firms who sgall remain anonymous, but I got to believe that they have some way of publishing all 120 sheets without so much manual setup each time.

rkmcswain Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I have not tested this lately, but I wonder if you could add all of those sheets to a new Sheet Set, then publish from there using a Page Setup Override...? http://heidihewett.blogs.com/abovetheclouds/2006/01/sheets_happen_s_1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
