publish PDF'S from ARCHICAD

Is there a way to create PDF's from several Archicad drawings without having to open each and every one of them and print to Adobe Printer?

I usually have to do this for every single project which contains a min. of 50 drawings every time something gets revised on a few. There's got to be a way to create a bundle

You have to "publish them" using Publisher. Read about it in the reference guide.

Thanks. I see how you can publish different stories and views within that project...but I don't see how you can select views from other projects and select to publish those together as one set rather than opening each .pln file and selecting publish.

You have to create one PLN in which you will place all the views that are needed from the different projects from this one you will Publish.

thanks! I was able to do that. However I noticed when I publish it all the text disappears.

and when I publish them is there a way so when it gets published it keeps its original file name instead of story 1...story (1) etc. just curious.
