It seems odd because previously with ArchiCAD 9 and Plotmaker the layout book contained views from many different ArchiCAD *.pln files and it had no problem publishing *.dwgs with the drawing content etc!
thanks

I routinely have views placed from multiple PLNs and have not seen this problem.
Are you getting any error messages?

Nope, I don't get an error message? after publishing the *.dwg, I re-open it using AC 10 and it is blank? the current translators 'Save Options' are as follows:
for future editing
File Format: AutoCAD 2004, 2005, 2006
Convert Images to: Image's original format
Template File: (not sure what this is? but I leave it blank)
Save Layout into: Paper space with full drawings content
Place drawings into: Single DXF/DWG file
Saving floor plan: convert complex elements to blocks
Save zones as: stamp and fill
I have tried other 'Save Option' combinations but still get a blank *.dwg?
Please note if i link a view from the same AC 10 *.pln the view appears in the *.dwg, it only ignores views that have been imported/linked from other AC 10 *.pln's?? its frustrating as we are running on v.similar systems and you don't seem to be suffering!

Longshot here, but I remember something about all placed drawings needing to be up-to-date before publishing, but I forget what the 'or else' was about...
