Publish using old drawing

we made changes to drawing a day ago. We used publish to create a multi sheet PDF. One of the drawings in the PDF was a the old drawing. The plot stamp on this drawing had a date from three days ago even though the date on the

PFD file was current. We ran a second publish and could not recreate the issue. We are concerned that this will happen again and we will not catch the issue resulting is a loss of time, production and money. Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea how to fix or prevent this from happening.

That's too random a problem for a permanent solution: since you cannot replicate it again, I suspect a step was missed during the first PUBLISH that someone did not repeat the second time.

No a step was not missed. The plot stamp on many of the PDF's has a date of three days ago while some of them had a date of today.

Not sure: something got missed or done differently, or you would be able to repeat at will with the same set of drawings all day long right now.

May I ask why you all still use that old tool, instead of something more precise and deliberate like a FIELD? We find them way more useful, reliable, and out of the easy control of a user in the file(s) plotting or publishing.
