a dsd file saves all of your settings in the publish diolog box at the moment the dsd file is saved.  to use the dsd file folow these steps...

1.  Open the publish command

2.  click on the load sheet list command

3.  find your previously saved dsd file and load it...

4.  the publish diolog box should now be pre set to exactaly what it was the last time this dsd file was saved. 

 

the order of your drawings will be the same, drawings that are no longer in your system will still be displayed but they will be displayed with an error in the status columb.  the page set up will still be the same, as will the publish to options. 

 

if you want to change somthing you can, (ie, print to a pdf instead of to your printer)

any changes that you make will not be reflected in the dsd file the next time you use it,

if you want your changes saved you will need to save a new dsd file or replace the original one.
