Batch converting to PDFs, is it possible to flag drawings that need rebuilding?

    Is it possible to flag a drawing that needs to be rebuilt or that has
    dangling dims, etc when batch converting SW drawings to PDF?

    This would allow me to use the View-Only option when opening a SW
    drawing, then saving to PDF versus doing a normal open which will take
    longer on large models.

    I have a macro that will open each drawing in a folder and do a "Save
    to PDF" using the SW addin.

    Any ideas?

    I was thinking of something along the lines of

    If drawing doesnt need to be rebuilt then Save to PDF to folder X:\GOOD

    ELSE
    Save to PDF to folder X:\BAD
