Print separate PDF sheets with automatic file naming

Print separate PDF sheets with automatic file naming

We would like to print sheets to PDF individually but Revit's implementation of this feature is...bad.  It's fatal flaw is that it prompts individually for each sheet/view filename.  We print sheets a lot, probably 95% of the time, maybe more. For internal team dynamics we would like to be able to print sheet as PDFs individually.  This is truly necessary to us, and believe me, I understand that detail references hyperlinking is lost when printed individually!

 

I propose a third "File" option become available in the plot dialog when only sheets are selected in the "Print Range".  When this happens, file naming becomes automatic, formatted as: <sheetnumber> - <Sheetname>.pdf.  The files are saved into a designated folder with only one prompt to overwrite existing files.
