Batch Plot

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Shoman,
Unfortunately what you are asking Autocad to do is make your decisions for you and that is something it just can't do. You are asking to plot different parts of a drawing and different viewports and there is simply no provision for that. You can speed things up considerably if you plot what you need to file and then assemble the plot output from the files. Plotting to file is much quicker than straight plotting especially if the plotter has a small RAM or your network is busy. There are third party plotting programs you can use if the list from each drawing has the same parameters. Some blueprint houses will also offer the service for a fee that may be more cost effective than doing it all within the office. You just need to provide a copy of the drawing files.
