Batch pdf printing

[Anonymous]

Is there a way to batch print to pdf with auto file naming?
What I need to do is to print all the sheets, (around 100) to individual pdfs. Thus, I do not want to name each one individually.
How would one go about this? Is there a plugin that I don't know about?

Hi @Anonymous,

Hope you are well! 

Have a look at the following two links below which served as a solution for other users: 

Link ONE

Link TWO

Also, other paid for options are RTV Xporter  OR  Xrev Transmit (This one is generally also the favorite option among past forum threads, apart from batch plotting, you can batch export & filter what you want to plot/export to .DWG etc.)

Other options like BlueBeam can also be investigated.

I hope this helps!

Hi Rudi, thanks for the links, but those also require you to name each individual file. Any one of our big multi use projects will have upwards of 100 sheets per package. Having to name them individually is not an option.

Hi @Anonymous, 

Quick extracts from what RTV Tools/Xporter and Xrev Transmit where you can use project parameters on sheets or from your Project to name PDFs/Batch PDFs.

 

I hope this helps!
