I don't believe PLOT uses what is in the page setup if there is something else saved to the layout. It only defaults to the page setup if you have nothing saved to the layout.


Not quite true. The [named] page set-up should be assigned to the layout. If a change is made to the page set-up settings during plotting or otherwise and applied to the layout, the named page set-up is no longer current and needs to be re-set as such. This can be done with the page set-up manager or it can be done in publisher as a temporary override, When doing this the page set-up that was current when the file was last saved will remain current.

 

The rest of your post is solid advice.

 


I didn't explain it very well. From the plot dialog, you can select "Apply to layout". If that setup is not available (for example, the print parameters were picked on the spot and applied to layout, or it is a customer's layout referring to his local printers), it is the current setup, but it won't work because it refers to a printer that doesn't exist. So no matter how many working page setups you have in your drawing, if you don't apply them to the layout by making one current, it will throw out an error when trying to print OR publish. Thus you can have a page setup applied to the layout, that isn't in the list of working pagesetups.
