AutoCAD LT 2005 publish 1

[Guy405]

I know the publish command is a terrific way to save time when printing multiple sheets. Is there are way to publish 'plot to file'?? Or do I have to click the sheet #, click plot to file. Print. then repeat 100 times?

Configure your .PC3 file so that it plots to file.

Where is my .PC3 located? And which lines do I need to configure to be able to 'plot 2 file'?
(I am sending these PLT files to a printing company, otherwise I'd make multiple dxf files)

Under FILE >> PLOTTER MANAGER should be your plot setups (PC3's). If you don't have any then you are probably using system printers as the setup. You will have to ADD-A-PLOTTER and then set up a new pc3. WHen you get to the part about PORTS (a tab I believe), select plot to file as the selection. I hope this is helping.
