Hi! I'm new on this forum, hope I'm posting in the right place...
I work with automation projects that have 80 or more pages in a single DWG.
Frequently I have to convert this drawings to PDF, and the only way I know how to do it is through the PLOT - WINDOW command alternating pages, what takes about 40 minutes to do.
Is there a way to create a LISP command that makes the PLOT-WINDOW process automatic?

You can use batch plotting in Sheet Set Manager via Layout. It's the easiest way for me.

I think BricsCAD don't have the Publish command

Sorry, but I think we are talking about AutoCAD.
