Ok. no positive progress as yet, My company emails our drawings to a printing company for printing. In the past in AutoCAD we could plot to file and send the printers a file there printer could read. Now with Revit - with the printers being window based - there is no driver that will send the right format for our printers - my question is - is there a free software that our printers can download so that they can open our revit drawings when we email them through
thanks
Revit can produce either DWF files, or PLT files for each sheet. If you have the full version of Adobe Acrobat installed, it will create a PDF windows printer that you can also print to. If your printer cannot print any of these three formats, you need to find a new printer.
I plot PDF's of my drawings and send to the printer. I actually started
doing that when I was still using ADT. It allows me to see what is being
sent unlike plot files.

Find out from your printing vendor which brand and model of printer they
use; then use Windows Add Printer command to add this printer driver to your
computer. Subsequently you should be able to print to file using new printer
and send resulting files to your printing service.

Most printing companies (reprographers) are capable of printing from DWF. Most reprographics companies use either Oce Repro Desk or PLP PlotWorks for sending files to their printers. Both applications support DWF processing.
