What's the best way to automaticaly print a drawing to PDF? I can use mapkeys to set the directories and all, but is there a better way? How about reading the revision number and addining it to the file name (like "123-R3.pdf").

Steve,
I don't think you can automaticaly add the rev.#, but you can do it manually, before hitting OK to create the PDF.
It's something like:
Print-->Choose "Acrobate Distiller" from the printer's menu -->Edit the file's name-->OK
instead of just hitting a button, and the PDF is created automatically. im4cad
