    I am trying to set up a batch plot to file for about 300 sheets, in groups
    of 30. It has been awhile since I have done this and am having trouble doing
    so. Once I locate a path, it creates the plt's but no extension. How can I
    create this by selecting a group of files? I have tried a variety but have
    had no success.

    Thanks!

    You may have to give some more information.

    What are you using to batch plot, are you using AutoCAD LT or AutoCAD full
    and what version etc.

    I am using AutoCAD 2002, full. All the sheets have defined pages setup and
    operable.

    I am not too sure on the driver version, but it is the HP1050C
    (hp1050c.pc3).

    Batch plotting works fine if I set the location of the output individually,
    but not when I select more than 1 file. When selecting a group, only option
    I have in plot settings to plot to file is location, with a random name (eg:
    C:\test\test.plt). Once I print, it batches the file, but there is no
    extension. I was able to do this long ago and have forgotten what I did to
    get it to work.
