BATCH PLOTTING

[kmacsys]

I use both Microstation and ACAD. I can plot 50 microstation plots in about 2 minutes, ACAD takes 10-15 minutes for the same amount of plots. Does anybody out there know of any quicker way to batch plot, 3rd party software, other ideas?

My Batchplot utility crashed on me the other day so I went searching for a good replacement that was faster!

This one was the best that I found

http://xanadu-limited.com/scripteeze/

It is a batch script utility. Gives you a log file for each operation and individually times them. Log file said 8 sec per print when I ran a print script file.

It is shareware $35USD to register, but the unregistered version will do up to 20 files! Most of the other software I tried would only let you do 10 or 5 or even only 3
