plotting multiple files

plotting multiple files

plotting multiple files

(OP)
I've been trying to find a way to print multiple files to my printer all with the same configuration.  

freeware programs have been unsuccessful.

i've searched and have not found a good solution.

I'm using 2007 LT

thank you
 

RE: plotting multiple files

(OP)
thanks but doesn't seem to be working on my machine.

the last two file types are "not installed" which i'm assuming one of them is the DWG file type.   

RE: plotting multiple files

Does AutoCAD's "Publish" command come with LT?

RE: plotting multiple files

Publish does come with LT, but (correct me if I'm wrong here guys) it will only publish multiple tabs in ONE drawing to a printer.  If there are multiple drawings, it will only publish to dwf.

How the LT guys here get around it when they can't get on a full version of Acad, is publish the set to dwf, then open the dwf viewer, and use that to send them to the printer.

Only built in way that they've found to do it.

RE: plotting multiple files

At least in real autocad, publish can plot from multiple files, in fact that is what I use it most for.

RE: plotting multiple files

(OP)
LT can't publish multiple files to printer.  
I will try the publish to DWF then try to print those files.

Though, I'm not familiar with a DWF viewer that can send many files to the printer at once.

thanks

RE: plotting multiple files

(OP)
ok done!

used OHIOCAD's suggestion.

thank you

RE: plotting multiple files
