Question
Hello

I am not that familiar with script file but usually have enough knowledge to get by.

I have 2500 drawings which I need to modify the page setup of each one to point to a certain .ctb file.

I figured I could open 50 or at a time and run a script to update the drawings.

Since filedia 0 does not work with _pagesetup , how can right a script to modify the plot style?

Thanks

Chris

Answer
I think you would have to do this programmatically, using VBA or lisp. Alternatively, instead of doing this, you could download my plot2000 program from www.plot2000.com and create a plot macro that has the ctb and other settings pre-set for you. So instead of trying to pre-set that in all your drawings, you can just use that plot macro to 'remember' your stored plot presets for single plots and batch plots.
