I've always worked with about 20 sheets to a layout. That method has its benefits and its aggravations.<BR /> <BR /> I want to test out the one-to-one method, but it appears that my config (Mac OSX, and I print to Postscript file) will keep this from happening.<BR /> <BR /> The main thing is that a Batch Print...thing...(is it a document or an application???) produces a series of postscript files for each layout. The bummer is that they seem to all have the same name - no options for overwrite avoidance. Also, I can't get the Batch thing to hold onto a Page Setup config. I'll set it to 24x36, then print to a file. When I distill the resulting Postscript file, I get an 8.5x11 document. When I check the page setup, I find that Plotmaker has reverted back to a default page setup.<BR /> <BR /> Does anyone use this tool to print to a file?<BR /> <BR /> Thanks.</T></DIV> Fri, 19 May 2023 20:27:31 GMT Anonymous 2023-05-19T20:27:31Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/Plotmaker-2-3-Batch-printing-to-PDF-or-PS-possible/m-p/9066#M1569 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>I know there are a lot of fans of the one-layout-per-sheet method.
