In the batch print display options there is a setting for Output mode that can be set to "as-is"
What determines the "as-is"? Is it if the view is set to wire-frame or not?
.
Thanks Andrew
RE: "This default behavior may be overridden by specifying a default mode in the printer driver configuration file. "
So if the .pltcfg is set to "No preference" the last setting actually used on a particular computer will be in effect. I assume that setting the desired value in the display options output mode will be the final arbiter of this setting.
If you think of Batch Print as, accurately, an application that simply sends key-in commands to the Print dialog, the "as-is" option means no key-in is sent. So in the case of as-is Rasterized mode, the value would be whatever the Print dialog would default to were it being invoked interactively.
In the case of a rendered view, the Rasterized toggle is forced on, and cannot be overriden by key-in command. For wireframe views, by default the most-recently-used Rasterized toggle setting is retained (on the theory that most workflows are consistently either rasterized or non-rasterized). This default behavior may be overridden by specifying a default mode in the printer driver configuration file.
The Rasterized toggle is one of the few properties on the Print dialog whose default value may be obtained from the user preference file rather than the active design session. For that reason, it's a good idea in Batch Print to set the property to an explicit value, e.g. not "as-is".
