Publish To Individual PDF Without Attending To Each Plotting Process

AutoCAD 2014/2015
SheetSet Manager Publish Using Page Setup Overide
PublishCollate = 0 (To plot to individual PDF file)

ISSUE 1:
In the Sheet Manager, when I send a group of sheets to plot to individual PDFs, (PublishCollate to '0') I would have to sit and monitor the plot for each run of the plot sheet.
If I have a 196-sheet SUBSET in a project, then I would have to sit through all the single sheet-printing-process.  Instead, I just use the single sheet PDF of all sheets.
The purpose of the SheetSet Manager is to make plotting easier.  Is there another variable to set so I can set PublishCollate to '0' and have the plot save individual sheet layout
to individual file?

ISSUE 2:
If I can resolve the "ISSUE 1", then, say I have four layouts in my SheetSet Manager that all four are in one DWG file, but the sheets are in different layouts,
to plot these four files, I have to change the automatically generated PDF names to match the layout that is being plotted.

Thanks.

Which PDF driver are you using?

Try using the build-in DWG TO PDF.PC3 driver already in 2014/2015 instead: PUBLISH makes that easy with the PDF option on that command's pop-up window.

AutoCAD plots one sheet at a time otherwise, always has, still does: by using the pagesetup driver in PUBLISH that's all you are asking AutoCAD to do. One Page after One Page after One Page.
