There might be something of interest in this old article:

Thanks Inga, That aricle did jog my memory. I'm working in a temporary position at the moment and I'm the only one here that knows Microstation, so I'm having to do some things from scratch. I have a question though. In the image, I understand the information from Net Use but does the Printer name (highlighted in blue) have any relevance?
Thanks again Inga!
I have copied pdf.plt and made these additions to print directly to our postscript ready KIP plotter:
default_outFile/auto_overwrite = "t:\$(USERNAME).pdf"
; The following line is defined in standards.cfg to define the temp archive paths ; program /wait /post /command='$(COMSPEC) /c xcopy "$(MS_PLTOUT)" "$(DGN_PLT_ARCHIVE)" /i /y /q'
; The following option will direct output to the plotter program /wait /post /command='$(COMSPEC) /c copy $(MS_PLTOUT) \\kipstf\KIP6000'
; The following option will open the plotted pdf ; program /wait /post /command='$(COMSPEC) /c "t:\$(USERNAME).pdf'

Hi Roy - I would like to try this out. Is there any chance you have this included in a PLTCFG and would be willing to post it?
Also, which configuration variables have to be set in our configuration? Just COMSPEC & DGN_PLT_ARCHIVE? How do you define COMPEC - I think that it the only piece that I really don't understand.
Thanks!
