DWG to PDF no preview please

[jnantel]

My goal is to publish drawings using the DWG to PDF plotter. I would like to turn off the option "Open in PDF viewer when done" located under the plotter custom properties. When I try to save the setting "uncheck" it always automatically revert back to be checked..? The problem is that if you have the PUBLISHCOLLATE set to 0 you're going to have a billion iteration of PDF viewer opening all over your desktop... Any one has a good recipe?

are you able to succesfully save the pc3 file when you modify the custom properties?

There are 2 things to consider:

- "DWG to PDF.pc3" file might be write-protected, because I don't have that problem, and my choice remains after I save it;
- if you use Publish, the choice you make inside Publish dialog about "Open in viewer when done" (make sure it's UN-checked) overwrites the setting in your PC3 file.

Hope this helps.
