About Scott Cook
Expertise
I`ve been using AutoCAD since 1987 and programming AutoLISP nearly as long. I can answer questions about programming AutoCAD (except ARX) and production enhancement techniques. I cannot answer questions about AutoCAD crashes or DWG corruption. AutoCAD PROGRAMMING (menus, lisp) related questions only!

Experience
Since 1987. Author of Plot2000 software for for AutoCAD, http://www.plot2000.com. PROGRAMMING QUESTIONS ONLY PLEASE. Questions that are NOT related to programming or AutoCAD customization (menus and lisp only please) are outside the scope of my volunteer services and will NOT BE ANSWERED.

AutoCAD - Changing the default printer on multiple files


Expert: Scott Cook - 10/29/2004

Question
We have thousands of drawing files on our server, produced by different people using various printers. I need to change all the files on our server to the current plot device, but it's a real pain to open each one, update and save! can you please help, I am using AutoCAD 2000.

Answer
I have a product called plot2000 that you can try. It's $49.95/ station, and there is a free 30-day eval at www.plot2000.com that you can check out.
It does not need "page setups". You associate your plot settings with macros using Plot2000. You can then use these macros for single plots or batch plots.
