Does anyone know of a way to plot multiple dwf files without having to open each one individually? Multi-sheet DWF files are not an option for us right now.

Thanks

Change the publish options.

I'm talking about actually plotting them though, not creating them. For instance.... say someone sends me 50 DWF files. Is there a way I can send all 50 to the plotter without having to open each one individually? With PLT's, you could do it through DOS or even some 3rd party software. Is there anything like that for DWF files?

Thanks

Hmm, only thing I can think of is using the free Batch Plotter Utility from Autodesk. It gets a little dangerous to use, though, unless you're positive that the dwf's you're receiving are all the same paper size.

If that doesn't work, I think you have to open them all, though I'd be happy to be proven wrong about that.

Hi

Please note I've *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD General (http://forums.augi.com/forumdisplay.php?f=120) Forum to this one as I feel this particular Forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

Thanks, Mike

Have a good one, Mike
