PDF viewport layer control

If you have more than one PDF overlay, you might put them on separate layers. Generally speaking in this case, the PDF extents overlap so when i plot different sheets, I would want only a single PDF to be visible.
So, my first thought was to freeze the layers of unwanted PDFs in the viewport. Except, once i did that, nothing happened. So, i guess i have to manually freeze the layer when plotting each sheet? I then can't publish the layouts as the appropriate PDF's won't be visible.
Anyone have ideas?
Thanks
Kevin

What about clipping the pdf's to avoid overlaps?

If they were used all at the same scale, that would work. I have 2 at one scale and 3 at other scales. Ironically, the 3 at the larger scale aren't a matchline scenario. But more of a turn of the head to focus on another area of the site.
Thanks for the reply! Good thought about clipping. Had slipped my mind.
Thanks
Kevin
