Hi

Check out the following Technical Documents on the Autodesk web site under the Knowledge Base section -

ID: TS76529 - Batch plot to files using PUBLISH command (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?id=2981372&linkID=2475323&siteID=123112)

ID: TS28462 - Set Plot to File as default (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?id=2868642&linkID=2475323&siteID=123112)

Have a good one, Mike

If you are familiar with the publish or batch plot function of autocad. The following trick will help you batch plot to plts.

Set up a printer/plotter as you normally would in autocad.  Then go into the properties of the printer under the ports tab and switch it to PLOT TO FILE.
Now you should have a printer specifically set to 'Plot to File' and you would use this printer/plotter instead of your normal printer/plotter.

Good luck
