AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Can't Publish Multiple DWG Containing Objects To PDF

Mar 29, 2012

the issue is when i try to publish multiple dwg files which containing civil 3d objects including data ref to pdf it won't do it other whatever drawing is currently open.i kinda can see why. because the data ref reading is not programmed in when "invisibly" opening the cad files. xref are autocad native and it works.

so no warnings or anything. just publish the first one and told me it's done. i've seen this years ago when first started using civil 3d but then i just never complained here.

is there a solution for this? what i did before was obviously open each drawing. then publish, huge waste of time. making me hate my job because of repetative tasks. i almost always try to automate.

yesterday made a program to make one surface for each csv file there was hundres of them and basically 2 hour programming and 1 minute to process the files once got the program working.can read subfolders to find csv file too.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Publish Only Prints One Set Of Sheets When Set For Multiple Sets

Dec 31, 2013

I'm having an intermittent issue with my publish command.  So far the pattern seems to be on drawings with a larger number of sheets (last one was 15, this one is 7).  When I get the publish dialog box, I'll set the number of copies to however many I need but it ends up only printing one set.  It doesn't happen every time.  Just with these two drawings so far.  They have nothing to do with each other and haven't shared any data.  The only similiarity is that they're both older projects that were started some years ago on previous CAD versions.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Publish Of Multiple Sheets Misses Some Profiles And Pipes Sporadically

Feb 16, 2009

When using the publish command to print multiple sheets from Civil 3D, it will sometimes fail to print certain objects. Usually it is a profile. Occasionally it drops some of the pipes. When we plot sheets individually it plots fine. Only C3D objects are affected, not regular ACAD objects. It only seems to be pipes and profiles. This problem is sporadic. It may be drawing specific but the sporadic nature of it makes it hard to say for sure.

The way we set up our drawings, profiles and pipes are almost always DREF's. This appears to be related. If we creat a test drawing with everything in one drawing publish works fine. If we then seperate into two drawings, DREF the data, and then publish again, the pipes disappear (from the plot not the drawing itself).

The same problem occurs on two different printers so I don't think it's driver related.

It started happening when we were on 2008. I thought maybe it was just that version. However, it seems to have gotten worse in 2009.

AutoCad :: Convert Multiple Single Text Objects Into Multiple Mtext Objects

Jul 3, 2013

I have long used the following lisp to convert multiple single text objects into multiple mtext objects (i.e. make each text entity into separate mtext entities).

; T2M - convert individual Texts/Dtexts to individual MTexts
; modified by Xanadu - www.xanadu.cz
;
(defun C:T2M (/ ss i elist)

[Code]....

However, the mtext entity always moves position slightly (compared to the original text entity) after converting the object. better lisp that converts multiple text entities into mtext entities (which are all separate still, i.e. not joined together) without the position of the entity changing?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rotate Multiple Text Objects 180 While Retaining Individual Insertion Points?

Feb 14, 2013

I have numerous text objects I want to rotate 180 while retaining each text objects insertion point.  There's got to be an easy way to do this.

Long explanation:  I created an annotation template to label pipe diameters on an imported shapefile.  Everythings good, labels are parallel with lines, except for the fact that some labels are upside down.  Is there an expression that would eliminate this?  In my annotation template, my rotation expression equals the "angle" field of the object.  My "quick and dirty" fix was to burst the annoation labels, and manually rotate necessary text, which wasn't a huge headache since I'm dealing with a relatively small number of labels, but in the future I might have hundreds of upside down labels.

AutoCad :: Publish Multiple Tabs To PDF

Nov 9, 2012

I am trying to publish multiple tabs in to PDF. But when I do publish command, I get one PDF for each tab, I don't want that. I want all the tabs to be plotted into one PDF. I tried going into the option of publish and set it to multi-sheet dwg, but that doesn't seem to solve the issue.

BTW I am using Acad 2009.

AutoCad :: Publish DWG To Multiple PDF Or DWF Files?

Apr 15, 2013

I have a client that needs me to deliver my drawings in PDF format as multiple files with a specific naming convention. What I am doing is publishing to multiple files then renaming each file individually which is time consuming and prone to error.

I was hoping to come up with a way to automate the process.

Here's what I have: Each layout contains a title block block, lets call it "tblock". Within this block there are attributes for drawing title, sheet number etc, lets call these attributes "dt", "sn" respectively. Each layout also contains an Xref which contains a block which has attributes for revision data such as date, revision, issue description etc Lets call the xref "XA1", the block "Xtblock" and the attribute I need "Xrev". In visual basic it might look something like XA1.Xtblock.Xrev

Here's what I need: export each layout as {sn} {dt} Rev {Xrev}.pdf

Now I have used VB to automate Excel tasks and create Database applications so I would describe myself as "handy", just not used VB within Autocad before. I have also not used LISP before either so I'm a bit of a layman in that respect.

AutoCad :: Publish Multiple Drawings To PDF - Autosave?

Jul 5, 2011

I'm weaning myself off of Adobe's PDFMaker and learning how to publish.

I've got everything working but I'm prompted at an Adobe prompt (Save PDF File As...) for every sheet
which is overwhelming when I have multiple drawings with multiple sheets.

I don't know how (or if it is possible) to make it just save to the default name and continue onto the next one.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Linetype Will Not Publish Correctly

Feb 20, 2013

we use a custom treeline for all our drawings and as of late we can not publish this line type. The tree line will plot fine if you plot the individual pages but when you try to publish and plot all the pages as a group, it plots the tree line as a dotted line. I checked the plot styles and it's set to use object linetype. Like I said though it only seems to have this problem when publishing the drawing

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: No Exist In Profile Using Publish

I have profile sheets I set up using our template. If I plot the layouts one at a time. I can see the existing grade line in the plot. If I publish all of the layouts at once. The existing profile doesn't plot.

I've checked the layer freeze setting and made sure there is a defined page setup to use in Publish. It's the same setup they plot individually with. I get the same result if I plot directly to our Toshiba printer or to PDF using the CutePDF driver.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Publish Command Won't Publish

May 9, 2013

Using AutoCAD 2013, myself and several other coworkers have encountered an error message when creating a pdf with the publish command. I attached a screen shot of it.

We never experienced this in earlier versions. It doesn't happen 100% of the time, but it has been recurring more in the past month. I have restarted the computer after receiving the message and then invoked the publish command after restart and it was successful. I'm not going to do this every time I publish, nor do I see the need to turn off background plotting. That just seems like a bandaid fix.

I even tried publishing with different page setups to determine if it would react differently to any page setup, but it doesn't. I attached a view of my publish window, as well.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Publish Command And Overwriting PDF Files?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignments And Profiles Lost During Publish

Jan 30, 2013

I have two alignments with profiles, that when I publish either from the layouts, or from SSM, don't show up in the pdf. This includes the labels. If I do a plot of the individual sheets, they show up fine. There are other alignments using the same styles that publish just fine.

I had to repair the shortcuts to these two alignments. Not sure if that would have anything to do with it. Can't see how, since they plot fine. What's maddening is that I published a set of plans before repairing the shortcuts, and they came out fine.

I restored a previous version which required the shortcut repair, and it does the same thing.
