Batch plotting in order

I would like to batch plot multiple pages I have to one PDF. When I batch plot the order of the pages is not correct. How can I batch plot in a specific order? Thank you.

Publish by the PDF option in Publish command?

Should be the order you selected and list in publish command..

Isn't it?

A lot depends on your drawing style.
Do you have everything in Layouts or in Model?

I think I figured it out. When I click "Batch Plot" it lists two versions of my pages. A model version and a model version. The model version status shows "Layout not initialized". When I delete the model versions an list the layout version in the order I want, that seems to work.

"A model version and a model version."

 

The Model tab and any Layout tabs.

 

"Batch Plot" is simply the PUBLISH command. Look around at the various options on the command dialog and experiment with them. There are also some PUBLISH-related settings in Options that effect its default behavior. You should eventually find that there is a setting that will automatically leave out the model tabs and load only the layout tabs if you start the command while drawings are open.

 

Also, the header of the layout listing can be used as a sort button, assuming alpha-numeric ordered sorting is what you want. If not, use the move up/down buttons or drag/drop in the listing to sort the sheets any way you like.

 

Look into creating Sheet Sets, also.
