batch print not finding .plt file

I'm trying to batch print a set of drawings, but when I try to load up the driver, it won't find it.   The rest of my group is using V8 2004 while I'm using V8 XM.  I'm assuming there is something in the file that XM doesn't like, but I have no idea what that could be.  Could someone help me figure this out?  Thanks for any help you can give.

    There's a big difference between 'not finding' and 'not liking'. You can verify whether or not MicroStation XM can use the plot driver by placing a copy in your local \WorkSpace\Standards\plotdrv folder. Then print a test, browsing to the local copy of your .plt file.

    If MicroStation can't find the .plt file, then that pops the question: "Is my MicroStation XM configuration sufficiently similar to their MicroStation V8 2004 Edition configuration?"

  • Kent,

    You might want to create a comparable pltcfg file to use with XM as this is the new file format going forward.
