In my "day" job I deal with Acad and do like their "sheet sets" for publishing, which will allow you to print or PDF multiple files into one PDF. Although I haven't tried to go too deep in the weeds, Batch Print seems to be what I'd like but not with having all of my linework in one mega file (had one too many file corruptions to trust that any longer).
I have come up with a workaround that (for me) makes sense: creating a "Plot Drawing" where I have xref'd all of my separate drawings in on separate layers and created GTV's for them and then running Batch Print.
As an old hand-drafter, one of my loves of Dcad is the overshoots, but in printing my concoction the overshoots don't seem to display - except the symbols in each file. I've tried playing with the line spacing and overshoots (being applied to each xref'd file) but those don't seem to work.
Any ideas of a switch I haven't thrown yet?
