Using DWG to PDF to rotate resulting PDF file?

[INGOKUENZEL2159]

I use Batch Plotting to create Multi-sheet PDF files. If the drawing I want to plot is in Landscape orientation, is there any way to change the settings so the end result is rotated 90 degrees (i.e., still landscape, just rotated)?  It's a "Catch-22": If I use Acrobat Distiller, I can make individual plots rotate like I need them to. But, I can't use the Distiller to create multi-sheet files using Batch Plotting (unless I'm mistaken). Of course, I can use Adobe Acrobat to rotate the individual sheets. But, that's getting old. Not sure it makes a difference, but I always plot from Model Space; so I'm plotting multiple .dwg files.

Nothing with BATCHPLOT to a built-in PDF to create a multi-sheet single PDF file does that in one single shot, if I understood your need correctly.

Hi @INGOKUENZEL2159 - 

I'm not sure if I'm understanding the question, but have you tried creating a Page Setup with the required rotation and using that as an override in your batch plot?
To Change the Page Setup of One or More Sheets in a Drawing Set for Publishing

To Work with Named Page Setups for Plotting

Yes. I have tried that. It does work to an extent if I choose Acrobat PDF creator under Page Setup. However, each drawing sheet gets generated as an individual file...

@INGOKUENZEL2159  For rotating, splitting and other stuff related to PDF files you may try https://pdfsam.org/ 

There are other programs you can use. I have started using PDFsam for similar problems as yours.

I created a Lisp file to rotate my drawings 90 degrees for that same purpose. And a command to rotate everything back into place, save and close each drawing.
