create multi-sheet .pdf from project plot command

[Anonymous]

Can i use the ACADE "plot project" command to create a multi-sheet .pdf file (using the DWG TO PDF.pc3)? i can't even get it to create a single sheet .pdf.

is there another regular ACAD tool i should look into, like SheetSet Manager?

You can use the publish to dwf command. Then publish to a multisheet dwf. Then open the dwf and print to pdf printer.
Alternately you can publish to a pdf printer that collects all the pages and that allows you to combine them to a multisheet pdf.

I need my PDF's individual!

Can I generate individual pdf's from SSM?

Try using the Publish to DWF instead of plot.  You select the drawings, select which tab you want to print and UNSELECT Run Publish in the background.  Top left select Publish to: PDF.  Under publish options be sure to set the Location to where you want the file to go.  For type: select Multi-sheet file then change any other settings you want and hit OK.  Select Publish and it should make the PDF.

This method still creates (1) PDF with all the sheets in it.

I need separate PDF's created for each sheet.

Thanks

Just select single sheet and it will do each one seperately.

Well it worked this time?

It hasn't in the past.

Thanks ronbotkin

Glad it helped.

For sheet set publishing, set the variable "publishcollate" to <1> for all sheets to be in (1) pdf file.

And set the variable "publishcollate" to <0> for all sheets to be individual files.

Hope this helps someone.
