AutoCAD 2008: Publishing/Plotting with "Plot to file" Options

If you prefer publishing/plottting with "plot to file Option", you can include all plot files made into a single file, by setting "Publishcollate" value at command line to "0".


"Publishcollate"

Type: Integer


Saved in: User-settings


Initial value:1


Controls whether sheets are published as a single job


Publishing sheets as a single job requires all of the following:


A plot or PDF driver that supports the multi-sheet plotting or printing option


The page setup override option is selected, if publishing from the Sheet Set Manager.


Value=0
A published sheet set is processed one sheet at a time. Separate PLT and PDF files are created for each sheet. If the sheet set is published, the sheets might be interleaved with other plot jobs.

Value=1
A published sheet set is processed as a single job. A multi-sheet PLT or PDF file is created. If the sheet set is published, it is never interleaved with other plot jobs.
