CAD tips and tricks 1 Publishing

So recently I had to print a whole batch of drawings to pdf at one time. It took a long time, but afterwards I was told this trick. The publish option in AutoCAD, which I have never used, can be used to print multiple documents at once to pdf, DWF and to the plotter that is specified in the page setup of that drawing. This means you don't even need to have the drawing open to plot it, you can insert it into the publishing sheet set, and the publishing option will print it automatically. This has already been a great help to speed up the process when printing multiple documents, especially when they need to be printed to pdf!
