This is the old way. I decided to keep it for historical interest.
Building on the ability in OS X to save PDFs from the print dialog, we can easily create PDFs of drawing sheets. In PlotMaker 3, you can print multiple sheets at once to a single document, making one PDF of an entire set.
For two reasons:
• Printing large documents that aren't PLT files, such as big PDFs sent by consultants.
• Creating PDFs of drawing sheets.
Adobe's PDF technology is built in to OS X at a low level. One of the primary benefits of this is the ability to save PDF files from any print dialog box, without using Acrobat or another third party solution. Anything that can be printed can be saved as a PDF, using any print driver on the machine, even for a printer that doesn't physically exist.
Rather than rewrite the basic overview of this feature, I will direct you to the Help menu in the Finder, where if you search for 'print PDF', you find several relevant articles. The PDF format is one of the fundamentals of modern data exchange, and if you don't know what it is, you should ask Adobe, rather than your colleagues.
