PDF overwrite

Is there a way to set the configuration variable for the plot output file to automatically overwrite the existing pdf? When I try I get the "error detecting inside the Adobe PDF library method 'PDDocSaveWithParams".

  • By default the "Auto Overwrite File" property is set to "False" in the delivered PDF.PLTCFG. If set to "True" it should allow you to overwrite the file. I can easily duplicate this error message if the same named file is open by another application as I try to overwrite the file. The other time, it was file specific and for that we had to turn Off  "Enable Measuring" and "Enable Georeferencing" under "Driver Properties". If the latter is your case, what version of MicroStation are you trying to use?
