AutoCAD Lt Published/batch plot problem

[Anonymous]

Hello,

My AutoCAD Lt previously published/batch plotted to PDF fine.  For some reason now, after clicking the 'publish' button, I get a pop up window saying 'select file' with a dwg file extension.  I have to select a dwg, but nothing is plotted regardless of what dwg I select.  

The initial 'publish' window has all the setting I want eg sheet name, page setup, status (no errors), publish to (PDF)....  its all there but this window keeps popping up during the plot and crashing it.

Help please.

Post screenshots of your PUBLISH command pop-up, and a screenshot of the PUBLISH OPTIONS button's pop-up as well, let's see what you see.

Hope this helps,

The third image shows the 'select file' pop-up which is where it all stops.

You don't have a page setup selected which is why they do not plot.

In addition to other responses.... this is never a good idea to have turned on

Hi @Anonymous,

It looks like @pendean and @hwalker provided some good suggestions to help you troubleshoot the publishing issue you're experiencing.

Did choosing a specific page setup and/or unchecking Publish in background help you fix the issue?

Brilliant!! Thank you, that has worked.  I believe it was the 'print in background' tick box because I have used a saved layout in the past.

Thanks again.
