Can I control the naming of .plt files when batch plotting from sheet set manager

    Basically I need to use the sheet set manager to regularly output CAD files
    to our plotter but also for upload to the internet as .plt files. Right now
    I have to manually add extra information into the name of each .plt file.
    Things like the drawing revision. What also bothers me is that .plt files
    take the DWG file name as default, so if plotting multiple layouts from hte
    same drawing they trry to overwrite and prompt for new name.
    Does anyone know how to control .plt file naming in standard Autocad / ADT
    2005 ? I don't want to use Add-on / third party programs..

    cheers,
    Robin
