Hello.
 
I'm in need of being able to plot large numbers of large dwg files, preferably in the background, whilst I'm free to get on with other things.
 
I can easily batch plot dwfs, so a way in which to batch convert to dwf would also be a viable solution.
 
I've spent a little bit of time looking for one but thought for once I might try this way of finding out instead.
 
Cheers

For DWG is 2 ways, use program Govert's GoPlot Classic for batch print PLT files or use Sheet Set Manager (standard tool of AutoCAD) for batch print on all printers, what you want.

Great cheers.

Sheet set manager sounds good. I don't want to have to trouble IT to get them to install a new program if possible. You say it's a standard feature of AutoCAD? I use AutoCAD 2009 in a classic layout.

Yes, I'm sure, Sheet Set manager is part of AutoCAD.

Sheet Set Manager may be too complicated if you need just background plotting. The standard PUBLISH command will do the same job. You can use to to plot or DWF-publish multiple DWG drawings with multiple layouts.
