AutoCad :: Plot To PDF The Layout Sheet Name Is Not The PDF Plot File Name

May 14, 2012

Using someone elses template. When I plot to PDF the layout sheet name is not the PDF plot file name, it uses the drawing file name (and hence the same file name for all plots, not what I want). When I plot in paper space, my layout sheet name is the output file name, is there a way to change this?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Change Plot Setup To Multiple Sheets For Use With Batch Plot

May 21, 2013

I have one drawing per file at model tab. When I need to plot a multiple page file, I use:

Print > Batch Plot.

The problem is that I have to set plot configurations ( plot style table, plot area, paper size, etc) in each file before use Batch Plot.

Now I received 722 files with a wrong Plot Style Table. For this time I change the associated *.ctb file at Plot Style folder, but I will need to associate the right *.ctb to each drawing. It's also common to have to change other properties.

AutoCAD LT :: Fatal Error - Plot Layout To PDF

Aug 9, 2012

I cannot print my layouts to pdf.  Every time there is a fatal error.

It goes like this:

1. Open any drawing.

2. Select any layout.

3. File > Plot > Select PDF as printer/plotter

4. Click OK

5. Plot job progress bar appears

6. Fatal Error Message

FATAL ERROR:  Unhandled c000000dh Exception at 237eb667h

It is with every drawing, different drawings, every time.  It started suddenly.

I am using LT 2013.  I used to have 2008.  I got similar errors using 2008.  I uninstalled it (after trying repair reinstall, which failed to correct the problem) and reinstalled windows, and upgraded to 2013.  The problem was gone for a time and has just now restarted.

AutoCad 2D :: Layout With Numerous Plot Numbers

Jul 20, 2011

I have a layout with numerous plot numbers, they have there own layer, they have a consistent style and height but display differently. According to properties the only thing that varies is their content and x,y location. It should be a 2d dwg but i have had 'issues'.They have consistent layer properties, linetypes, weights, the font isn't bold, colour etc. I have tried flatten, flatz, specifying them at a significant height and then bringing them down again, match properties which interestingly will make narrow text bold but not the other way, setting Z to 0.000000000001 etc. I tried viewpoint etc and nothing has made any difference.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Aligning Title Block In Layout Tab?

Jan 6, 2014

Many times when I receive a drawing from an architect, when I go into the layout tab the titleblock info/XREF doesn't line up with the page layout.  I would assume it lined up when the architect sent it to me in his software.  For years the solution I use is to XREF the architects PDF in the layout and then go to print and change the Print Offset till it looked right in the print preview.  Then I would apply it to the layout.  I would then take the offsets and apply it to every sheet.  This is a very time consuming process and was wondering if there is a better way to make this work and still keep the scales.  I was also wondering if there was a way to move and align the layout on the fly in the paperspace.

I am having some difficulties when printing via dwg to pdf a rendered shade plot viewport in a layout. However, there is no problem using realistic shade plot. I am using the following materials: Metal | Alumininum (Anodized Blue, Anodized Blue-Gray), Plastic and Glass and the result is not good as all. I am also looking on a tutorial on strategic place to place light for even more realistic rendering.
