Batch print to file

[vikdayal]

Hello everyone !

Can anyone tell me how can I do a batch PRINT TO FILE to have EPS for all the files I want to print later on. My printer can handle EPS file.

Regards

Vik

I know I can use Task Scheduler to batch print files, but how can I print then to file instead of the printer.
Any suggestions much appreciated. I am using Solidworks 2005 or even 2004 SP4.1

File\Print - Check mark "Print to file" That is the only option in the print Dialog box. What file it makes I'm not sure. Try it and see.

Perhaps print to PDF? You can use Bluebeam and PDF995 (see <

http://www.pdf995.com>)

as printers to produce PDF (Acrobat) files.

Scott, Tick,

Thanks for the input, and i know about print to file while printing, I also know about the PDF file format, infact I dont even need Pushbutton PDF software as an add-on to convert to PDF, now I can just save as ! But I want to convert to EPS file by print to file in a batch or group. Scott the filetype I get when I print to file depends on the printer I choose.

So my question would be how to print to file in a batch !

There is no known program that I'm aware of the prints a Batch of Print files. This is something you would have to write or pay someone to write. Unless you search the web you might find something out there.
