Fields and sheet set

[marcbrac]

Dear,  I have made a sheet set with 40 existing drawings. 

At all these drawings I refer to the sheet set references through different fields.
When I want to publish these drawings in PDF, these fields are not displayed.
The only solutions I have is to open and save all these drawings once.
Then the fields will be visible on the drawings.
Is there a faster solution, which I highly prefer ?

Check your field update settings.  OPTIONS command then User Preferences tab click the Field Update Settings button and make sure you have the options checked, particularly the plot but I would check them all if they aren't already.  You can also change the variable FIELDEVAL to 31 to do this.

Thanks already I will try this tomorrow. It is now in Belgium 16.15u. Time to go home.

Unfortunately this is not the solution.

The settings were already there.

However, I tried again, but without good result.

Better solutions are welcome.

Thanks in advance

Are you publishing in background?

If yes, try a run with publish in foreground!

Yes, thank you
Like this with Publishing in foreground, the fields are activated.
Thank you again.
