ACAD LT 2022 Does not publish all selected sheets

[bneilsonmsi]

Been having an issue with LT2022.  When I go to publish a set of sheets as PDF in a drawing, it does not publish all of the sheets.  It is random in what it does publish, but seldom publishes all sheets.  I just did a test, and it did not publish my 2nd sheet the first time.  I deleted the output files, and did a publish again.  This time, it did not publish the first or 6th sheet.  Screen shot of publish screen attached.
Any suggestions?

Hi,

the first try is: Don't use background plot or publishing.

Is it working now?

Is this a unique problem to this one file/set of files? or does it happen to ALL files all the time?
Is this the first time you've used PUBLISH in LT2022?

Is LT2022 fully updated to 2022.1 yet? ABOUT command will confirm what you have, if it is not, get the update from your account page here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/all

Then ensure you have background publishing turned off before trying it again (after you restart your PC).

another try is:

Please use another target-folder. Use c:\temp or similar folder which have nothing to do with any cloudservices

Thanks all.  Turning off background publishing "solved" the issue, but if that is the result, why have the option to begin with...

Slow down 😉 . You came with a problem, we suggest and ask to find the problem (nothing more).

If publish in foreground works, just background publish makes trouble, we can work on it.

Please answer all questions,

turn background publishing on,

try it again.

If it is still a problem:

I guess your drawing file is corrupt, can you share your DWG (and xrefs if needed)?

Or try to fix the file yourself:

1 Copy your file as backup

2 open your file by command RECOVER

3 Start command WBLOCK, option EntireDrawing.

Open the new file and try publish again.

(I don't like to write down all possible tests, so sharing the file is the better option if wblock entire drawing doesn't solve the problem)

If still a problem:

In publish dialog, change the output folder to another, not shared folder.

Don' t ask, change the folder to another local folder as test.

Use c:/temp for example.

Same issue?

What is your productversion?

Command: About

to see productnames and productversion.

Wasn't uptight at all, just a rhetorical question. I will run the test(s) recommended and reply with results. I already did try to save to my local drive, and same result, so once I try the recover command I will update.

Thanks!

I had the same problem in AutoCAD 2025 and turning off publish in background solved it.
