ERROR: Internal Error: Failed to get Plot Settings Dictionary.
The file was originally created with Autocad 2010 in 2011. i would post the file but it is a customer print and i cannot disclose it here. we are now running up-to-date autocad 2013. this is not a problem with other files i have had to work with (older and newer). just seemds to be a localized event and am wondering if it is that something is corrupt.

Dec 27, 2012I have a Windows 7 machine running AutoCAD 2013. When trying to open any drawings from our AutoDesk Vault 2013 server, AutoCAD will hard lock/freeze and can only be closed by using Windows Task Manager. When accessing the same files through the Vault first, without opening AutoCAD, they open with no issues.

AutoCAD .NET :: Programmatically Accessing Pipe Data In C3D 2013?
Nov 19, 2012In C3D (2012 or 2013), the Pipe Properties Dialog reports "Hydraulic Properties" of a pipe section. Through .Net (C#), I can access part data such as Hydraulic gradient etc but I cannot seem to find any reference to three members I see on the mentioned dialog aka "Flow Rate", "Junction loss" and "Return period".
I have "fudged" a term "Flow Rate" into the pipe part parameter definition file (AeccPartParamCfg.xml) and can access that programmatically but I think this "Flow Rate" in the Pipe Properties Dialog" is part of the Auotcad database and I cannot seem to find a route to get hold of it.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Get Batch Plot To Plot PDFs To Single File
Sep 30, 2013I have just switched over to 2014 and i cannot for the life of me get my batch plot to plot PDF's to a single file! Instead, it's printing all 37 layouts separate. I tried switching between multi-file & single file in the publish options, but nothing!
i know that it took me a while to perfect my settings the last time i set up a new version, but i am struggling to work it out now.

AutoCAD .NET :: Creating / Selecting Plot Settings And Apply Them To Layouts
Dec 9, 2011I'm creating/selecting plot settings and apply them to my layouts.
The problem is when I open the plot dialog, the name of the page setup is not displayed. when I select the page setup name just created from the combobox, the setup is applied but the name still missing.
But this issue only combined with the new plot settings created in program. The existing page setups manually added from plot dialog are ok.The difference between the two type of plot settings is the .ISMODIFIED property is true for new settings but false for existing settings.
How can I make the plot settings not modified.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Migrate Custom Settings From LT To 2013 Full?
May 31, 2012I've made some customisation in the ribbon of a 2013LT version.

Seems it works only from LT to LT or Full to Full..
AutoCAD 2013 :: MEP 2013 Not Saving Profile Nor Workspace Settings
Aug 15, 2013Just upgraded a user to Autodesk Building Design Suite Premium 2013 but AutoCad 2013 and AutoCad MEP 2013 are not saving settings.
On first use the crosshair is large and angled, not standard. If I run "Rest values to default" then the settings are standard until I either restart AutoCAD or open a drawing then have the same strange cross hair.
Have tried creating a new profile, setting it as default startup profile by altering the shortcut but no matter what settings are not saved and revert to strange cross hair once AutoCAD is re-opened or a drawing is opening.If logon to computer as a user without a roaming profile all works fine.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Copy Settings And Toolbars From 2013 To 2014?
Dec 20, 2013Happens every year. Upgrade and spend half a day or more trying to get everything back to the way I had it. All I have is a couple small toolbars for commands that are several clicks deep in the ribbons and I want them "right there" all the time.
I thought Autodesk 360 might be a good tool for this. All it did was DOWNLOAD some old settings and destroy one of the toolbars I'd created. They really need an override in there to specify upload, download, overwrite or don't.
I'm trying to migrate (I guess that's the technical term) my settings from 2013 Mechanical to 2014 Mechanical. It's probably too late already, after 360 did its deal, but I really want to get this down so we don't go through it every year anymore.
I maintain that PTC had this part of it down Pro/ENGINEER. You had a config file that was editable plain text.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Change Plot Setup To Multiple Sheets For Use With Batch Plot
May 21, 2013I 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 :: Print PDF To Current Plot Settings In Current Drawing Directory
Sep 29, 2011Is there a macro/script/deisel that will automatically print a pdf (cute pdf autocad lt 2007) to current plot settings in current drawing directory and give it the current drawing view name and number? Disk space not a problem these days and would save time to have a pdf copy of all drawing tabs readily stored in the directory ready for issue.

May 17, 2013Having an issue where the .ctb works in some paper space tabs and not in others. When we do the plot preview on one tab the line weight is correctly shown, and when we go to a different tab, the preview displays colors and no line weight. We tried this on two separate machines both running the same operating system, AutoCad 2013 and using the same .ctb.. We tried creating a new copy of the ctb. There must be a setting that is different in the viewports, but I can not figure out what it is.
