Hi, I hope someone can help me with the following problem:
We use Autocad R2000 in our office, and i'm having a problem batch plotting .Plt files for a specific project.
I use batch plot regularly with few problems, but on a current project when i set up A1 batch plot to create plot files, i find that the plotfile when viewed in view companion is an A3 extract of the file. I follow the following procedure:
Pagesetup command: setup a A1 plot file; scale 1:1 (paperspace drawing); zoom extents. I then save this file.
Open batchplot program and add drawings required; select all drawing files, then import my pagesetup from options menu; then select correct plot device; save the list, then print.
On other projects this succesfully creates the A1 plotfile in the same location as the drawing file. In this case it creates an A3 extract?
I am trying to batch about 200 drawings, so any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
