    Multiple Page PDF from Models without IPS files

    Hi All,

    Can anybody confirm that ICS can produce multi-page PDFs from design files with multiple models without an IPS file?

    We have hundreds (and hundreds) of design files with multiple sheet models and we're looking to publish these as PDFs. Defining a IPS file for each of these, and future designs is not really a conceivable option.

    Dawn Clark Gentry seems to suggest this is possible in forum thread titled "Multiple page pdf from file with multiple plot shapes".

    I am able to produce multiple single sheet PDFs easily enough using the IP_SHEETDEF_MODELS variable for the model name in the settings file, and these are being distributed fine, but the option in the PDF 'Output File Format' to 'Create one multi-page PDF document for each IPS file' appears to have no effect in this scenario.

    I understand that I'm not using IPS files, but was hoping that behind the scenes that one was being created and this would work.

    If anybody has any suggestions, they'd be greatly appreciated. Cheers Jim

      Let me add our bid (DelDOT) into this request as well.  Even if it was something as simple as taking the PDFs created from the initial rendition process and having a special rendition process that will batch up multiple PDF files together and sort them by name, that would work for us.
