 I assume (_DGNFILE) sets it to active files name. 
 
 What do I type so the pdf takes Model name? 
 And the same for Sheet name as set in Models dialog?</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: How to set print name to Model name and Sheet name</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/763842?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 23:05:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:50c2d3e0-95d5-4edc-adbe-1f4ea1c50c01</guid><dc:creator>Lorys</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;personally I prefer text substitution via print table attached or assigned to the pdf.pltcfg&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to set print name to Model name and Sheet name</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/763841?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 21:43:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:eb20041a-e8af-4f8d-ba68-2b14624e7d5e</guid><dc:creator>Thomas Voghera</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks for answers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I should have mentioned background:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a/ I have tested in a few projects to have almost everything in one file, but many Models. Much faster to switch between Models than files! Works well I think. Hence you want to use Model name or sheet name for prints.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;b/ I normally put all output in one directory, C:/P, to look at them before placing them in project directory and renaming.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to set print name to Model name and Sheet name</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/763836?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 18:02:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:af75f518-a700-443f-8582-cd90f17082fc</guid><dc:creator>Kevin van Haaren</dc:creator><description>&lt;p data-uw-rm-sr=""&gt;You can set MS_PLTFILES to $(_DGNDIR), that way your pltcfg can be the same and you just change the value of MS_PLTFILES in the project or user configuration location.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-uw-rm-sr=""&gt;A lot of our users like to dump them on their desktop so some projects will set&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-uw-rm-sr=""&gt;MS_PLTFILES =&amp;nbsp;$(USERPROFILE)/Desktop/&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-uw-rm-sr=""&gt;USERPROFILE comes from the computer&amp;#39;s environment variables, you don&amp;#39;t need to set it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to set print name to Model name and Sheet name</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/763835?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 17:57:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:92354dbe-b061-468a-98a4-c4f20e3757ea</guid><dc:creator>mlm</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Additionally:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instead of (MS_PLTFILES) you may like to use (_DGNDIR) to print PDFs into the same directory as the CAD file&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I concatenate here filename_modelname. Very handy when you have multiple sheet files to become PDFs&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;( anybody else willing to share their ideas - or do you think this may not be the right place?)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to set print name to Model name and Sheet name</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/763831?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 15:49:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:1086851a-cc7e-4e64-82e1-10d2ba2430c7</guid><dc:creator>Kevin van Haaren</dc:creator><description>&lt;ul id="GUID-92815021-23C2-AC17-8CDC-62BB547258A9__UL_C2AF40B376FE49C39731DC5D7DE2C909" class="ul"&gt;
