Printing drawings
(OP)
How do you print individual drawings to different printers?
Example: Sheets 1, 5, & 7 are "D" size drawings you wish to send to the plotter. Sheets 2 - 4 are "A" size you wish to send to a laser printer, and sheets 6, 8 & 9 are "B" size you wish to send to the same laser printer only print out on 11 x 17 paper.
Is there an easier way to do this than one at a time?
Thanks

RE: Printing drawings
On a side note, although I can't think of any standard that forces the issue, most do imply that you should only have 1 drawing sheet size per drawing number; not a mix of sizes. Is there a specific reason you had to use different sheet sizes for this one file?
It may be time to redefine your company standards and avoid this inconvenience all together.

In fact, it will do what you are asking for, not only for the active SolidWorks drawing, but also for a bunch of drawings (read: batch printing). Please take a look at it and have a free 30 day test drive. Infos and download at http://swtools.cad.de/prog_pac.htm
