    Default Updating settings on multiple drawings

    I've been using Publish to import a different page setup to several drawings when plotting a large batch. The problem is that it doesn't stay. I have to open each drawing manually, assign the page setup, then save the drawing. I work with hundreds of drawings, and this is practical. Is there a way to automate this process?

    Bill, welcome to AUGI's forums. Please note that I split your post from an old thread. It is usually a good idea to start a new thread for a new topic, especially if a similar topic is years old.

    The -PSetupIn command allows you to import page setups. But there are also some threads in the Customization forums that have code to automate the process. Just search those forums for lots of info.
