creating multi sheet 'tiff'

creating multi sheet 'tiff'

creating multi sheet 'tiff'

(OP)
I searched the archived threads and cannot find the answer to this question: How do I get multi-sheet drawings to print as 'tiff's? I have everything set pretty well but I can't seem to get the subsequent sheets to print - only sht1. What is the line in the 'pcf' file for that?
Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: creating multi sheet 'tiff'

plot_sheets all default    that's from the pcf file

Not sure on tiff...but save as tiff from drawing, if you  change your sheet numbers the current one is printed

I'm sure someone will have a better answer
