Hi Experts,

GOOD DAY!
i'm new to the forum. Hope can guide me on my issue. I
used AUTOPUBLISH command to directly convert a dxf file to PDF. But i have the ff. observations.
Say, i have a drawing "test.dxf".

(1) When i save the drawing manually. it will then create the pdf on the desired location set.
No problem at all. See doSavemanually.png.(2) Then, the abovementioned concept, made me use vba to automatically convert to pdf and save.

ThisDrawing.SendCommand ("QSAVE" & vbCr)

It prompts _qsave and _autopublish as well, but it doesn't have any output file at all. Only got this info. See runfromvba.png.

I believe ive managed to set all for autopublish since #1 is working. Just don't know why if saving automatically using vba, didn't work as #1.:?

Thanks and appreciate your help in advance.

MBR,
Mark

Hello Mark,
Welcome to AUGI.

I've moved your thread since this is a programming issue. The SendCommand method runs asynchronously from the rest of your code. Please post your code so we can help you.

Did you use the VBA because you wanted to automate save / publish on multiple open files? I had tried using Express Tool / SaveAll and saving is working but not the Publish (with Publish Setting set on Save). Also on Express Tool / CloseAll.
