Consecutive Plotting

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Our company has drawings in the Model space that have 1 or more 8.5 x 14 sheets side by side. I am modifying an existing PDF creation routine to run through these 8.5 x 14 portions, and create one multi - page PDF.

I have been successful with 1 or 2 pages but after that it fails. I am simply taking the lower left coordinate and the number of pages as input and then I run through a for loop setting the plot window and using the plottodevice method to plot each page.

After the second page the PlotToDevice method fails.

If anyone has some insight or ideas or, even better, has done this before I would really appreciate your help.
