Reduced printing of layout tabs.

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by craigboddington, Sep 18, 2003.

  1. I am trying to write a list routine to print all the tabs within one drawing to a reduced size, such as A1 to A3 with out having to either set up 20 new tabs, or go and change to plot settings on each sheet to plot them.

    I've got the printing aspect sorted, but can't work out how to get it printer each tab. Is there a way i can compile a list of the tab names and then print them one by one?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Craig,

    (setq ListOfLayouts (layoutlist))
    (foreach Layout ListOfLayouts
    (setvar "ctab" Layout)
    ;;; --plot routine here--
    )

    You may need to remove 'Model' from the ListOfLayouts.
