Plotting multiple copies from command prompt

Anonymous — Wed, 07 Jun 2000 16:29:38 GMT

I have created a Lisp plotter routine for my office to use.
From one simple command it updates a drawings status, measures its size,
sets the paper size and plots the drawing

One thing I would like to add to it is a feature that allows the user to
print multiple copies in one go.

The AutoCAD PLOT dialog box has a 'Number of Copies' entry - but my plot
routine uses the command from the
command prompt by issuing -PLOT

The problem is that the number of copies does not feature in the command
prompt version of the command

Does anybody know how to access this from lisp or command prompt.

P.S. I thought of just getting the routine to run -PLOT several times for
the number of copies - but I dismissed this as it would take longer to send
and plot

Any help would be appreciated.
Kevin.

Only thing I can think of is to choose the
option to Plot to file, then run that file
through the appropriate number of times.
Maybe that'd be faster than rerunning the
plot?

Can your plotter be set to print more than one copy (from DOS Command Line
maybe)?

What version of AutoCAD? If it is AC2K, you can set it via ActiveX:

(defun setPlotCopies (Copies)
(vl-load-com)
(vlax-get-property
(vla-get-Plot
(vla-get-ActiveDocument
(vlax-get-acad-object)
) ;_ closes vla-get-ActiveDocument
) ;_ closes vla-get-AcadPlot
"NumberOfCopies"
Copies
) ;_ closes vla-put-property
) ;_ closes defun

Hi Robert,

Your lisp looks like the thing I need but when I run it I get the
message;

; error: no function definition: VLAX-SET-PROPERTY

Any ideas ???

Thanks
Kevin.

AC2K is what you want. Ignore the man behind the curtain (I mean my first
post), use the second post with (vlax-put-property).

Second post was wrong too. Frank set it straight (vlax-put-property), which
is what I had to begin with (really!, no really!)

Re:

Based on the response to this post I think you guys might find my software
package quite useful. I have a routine that I developed to plot multiple
drawings to multiple locations/files. I call this routine PlotWizard. My
Software package is described on my web page at
www.homestead.com/designpro/main.html These pages will explain to you how
my auto titleblocks, and detail borders work. Now I have not included
Plotwizard on my pages yet but here is how it works. The program is
designed to plot/print specific sheet sizes to pre-set locations. I have
mine configured to got to my laser printer & to my plotter. The routine is
dialog based to allow you to force all drawing sizes to the laser on legal
paper or letter. These options are available for each paper size larger
than letter: B,C,D,E, OR even long plots. If this sounds interesting to you
drop me a line through email on my website. It also allows you to send to a
file for spooling through windows or plotting later while you are at home
watching Friends. If you told my fellow workers that Plotwizard is no
longer working they would freak. Its simple you can plotter 100's of
drawings with one selection set of borders or you pick all of those points
the manual way. Will sale for $50.00/licensed copy or $500.00 unlimited
site license. Additional cost may be required for configuring your plotter
settings if needed.

Sincerely,

Rodney Estep

Hi Robert,

OK I took your lisp and added a line to set the number of plots

(defun setPlotCopies (/)
(setq Copies 4)
(vl-load-com)
(vlax-put-property
(vla-get-Plot
(vla-get-ActiveDocument
(vlax-get-acad-object)
) ;_ closes vla-get-ActiveDocument
) ;_ closes vla-get-AcadPlot
"NumberOfCopies"
Copies
) ;_ closes vla-put-property
) ;_ closes defun

I then loaded the LISP into AUTOCAD 2000 and typed

(setPlotCopies) which returned nil

I then ran -plot :

Command: -plot Detailed plot configuration? [Yes/No] :

Enter a layout name or [?] :

Enter a page setup name <>:
Enter an output device name or [?] :
Write the plot to a file [Yes/No] :
Save changes to layout [Yes/No]?
Proceed with plot [Yes/No] :
Effective plotting area: 291.34 wide by 412.59 high
Effective plotting area: 275.76 wide by 349.00 high

Plotting viewport 2.

Plotting viewport 1.

Command:

But I couldn't get it to plot more than one print. 😞

Any ideas - Is it due to loading the PC3 file ??

Thanks
Kevin.
