usually i have on one plan, dimension, electric, reflected ceiling and so on.. when i import this file to plotmaker, i get the plan and i can change the layer setting so it could be the electric plan or dimension plan as i wish; but the problem it the title it keeps the same name and i can't change to it's always ground floor as an example.
what do u do guys in this case?

Don't use PM to control layers -- You need to create independent Views within AC: A dimensioning View, RCP View, electrical View, and name these Views accordingly. When imported into PM, the drawing title of each placed drawing (imported View) will inherit the name of the view. LJY.

Do you still use pmk files ? If yes you have 2 options:
1- create separate title block - where the name of the drawing is "custom drawing #"
2- create within AC quickviews with different elements shown on it, name it properly within AC and publish everything. you will have more pmk files, but almost everything will work smooth.
Other solution is to load all informations directly from Archicad.
