Remove standards and apply layout to drawing

Anonymous
Not applicable

hi Autodesk Community,

 

I have quite a few drawings that I was hoping to standardize. I currently have some drawings that have come from companies that have standards associated with them. Since I don't have the standards, it takes about a minute to open each drawing and then another minute to remove the standards and save the drawing. This is not very efficient, and I was hoping that there was going to be an easier way to do this in a script.

 

I also have a series of documents that have plot settings that are referencing plotters that are no longer available. I was hoping there was a way to run a script that would load a page layout from another document. I used DWG Convert to do something close to this, but the new layout that I apply to the DWG is not applied to the drawing by default, so I still need to select the layout if I want to batch plot to PDF.

 

I am using AutoCAD Electrical 2015

 

Thanks for any help,

Rob

Maybe the link below will help. If you can find script-pro you, can run a batch of drawings. If not, you can open the drawing and drag and drop the .scr file into the drawing and it will run the script.
