Hi, you can use the driver pdf.pltcfg into microstation v8 2004?
We need to create PDF prints larger than 200 inches long.
Thank you soo much.
Hi Mappa
I am afraid MicroStation V8 2004 does not support pltcfg files
Should I create a PDF Print 297mm x 12000 mm,
I inserted the size, but it did not work

I had similar problem, only solution was to use less area for the height and use continued below so have several strips running east west below each other on te same roll plot sheet....
I used Saved views to create each following strip with match lines beginning and ending... only way I could get around the maximum paper length..
I had to do this again recently when client requested that the roll plot for 7 kms of roadworks be a maximum paper length of 3 meters and have all the information detail be readable, best scale I could use from existing refs was 1:1000 and have 3strips all on the one rollplot... hey worked for me without any extra effort.. but I did use V8i ss3 for this
But it did use to work before v2004 v8, exactly the same way with saved view or multiple self ref attachments moved and clipped....
