AutoCAD MAC - Set default DWG to PDF location

Anonymous

I am making several DWG to PDF plots in AutoCAD Mac 2018. I am looking for a way to save those PDFs to a specific folder. I would like the prompt to default to the last folder that was used for saving PDFs (DWG to PDF). This folder location can update with use (like Adobe products do), so that I can choose the folder for the first plot/save and then each subsequent plot will go to that folder until I re-choose a new location. Right now it is defaulting to the Documents folder and I have to navigate through several folders to save each plot. This is time-consuming and gets annoying because I know other software products have this capability. I scoured the Preferences/Options, but don't see a place to set a default for printing to PDF. Any help would be appreciated. Please be specific in the description (what the steps are) as I am a newer user. Thanks much!

Hi Shawn,

 

 

There is no special settings in AutoCAD for Mac for default PDF output folder.

Do you use Batch publish or Export as PDF?

I updated the software, and it seemed to fix the problem. Thanks!
