EPDF all layout configuration

sebulbaQN622 — Wed, 14 Aug 2024 13:58:17 GMT

Hello.

I use EPDF to save all my layout on one pdf, but I would like "export layout" is always displayed by default (and not current layout).

How do I set up?

Thank's for your help) ;o)

Not sure what you mean, try again please? Maybe show more than one screenshot perhaps.

@sebulbaQN622 ,

In a drawing, once you set it to "All layout" it will remain unchanged until you change it.

There is no setting to set it as default.

Any reason for not using the plot command and then select one of the builtin pdf printers that’ll only create pdf for current layout

@sebulbaQN622 ... or PUBLISH command that allows sets to be saved?

OR... SSM command (SheetSet Manager) to save project sets if you have more than one DWG file for example?

My problem is when I have to print several plans, the menu offers me to print just the current layer and not the All Layers.

I just wanted the default selection to be "All layouts"

When you have 50 pdfs to create...

Thank you for your answers ;o)

PUBLISH command, not PLOT command, if you need more that one-at-a-time PDF creation: explore in HELP in the program.

You can also explore using SSM (SheetSet Manager) to organize those layouts in one location to do what you seek as well.
