Sheet Sets - Publish Override

MRummler — Wed, 15 Jun 2022 18:07:41 GMT

I try to plot multiple sheets to PDF into one file, but a window pops up for me to save each file individually while using the publish using page setup override. I just cannot figure out how to make it plot all sheets into one file?

Please see attached screenshots of my publish settings.

Can somebody please help me figure this out? There must be some sort of system variable that I dont know about or something.

thank you.

>>>...while using the publish using page setup override...<<<
Those settings do not apply when you do that. Sorry. That's just how the command/program works.

If you want these settings, you can only use the PDF options here

You can ask Autodesk for a change to the command abilities here and it may show up in 2-3-5-10-20 versions from now https://www.autodesk.com/company/contact-us/product-feedback

The thing is that I have always used the override and it was always plotted into one single file until a couple months ago it just switched on me and I am not sure how it changed. For it to change from single file to multi file means there has to be a way to also reverse that setting?

I've never seen it work the way you describe (if we are both talking about the same thing of course, a screenshot of your PUBLISH command's list pop-up would confirm it). Sorry.

BUT... you can always start a support ticket through your subscription portal as explained here and ask Autodesk Support about it https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/account-management/users-software/support-options#:~:text=To%20contact%20support%3A,to%20access%20help%20and%20support.

I know it can work the way I described because I am aware that it works on all my coworkers computers. Whenever I need to use it, I use somebody else computer.

This is the option that I am talking about. See below screenshot:

What is your PUBLISHCOLLATE variable set to? Try setting to 1 if its 0

That variable was already set to 1. Unfortunately that wasn't the solution
