Print Organizer to PDF

Dear All,

I have 60 dgn files that i plot them to PDF through print organizer, the problem, all of pdf are not showing line style etc.. but when i look to the dgn file, they display line style normal.

anyway if i plot individual pdf one by one, it is showing line style normal too.

Can you help me please?

  • There is a special Printing and Plotting Forum just to handle problems like this, and I believe I have seen this issue mentioned more than once over there. I suggest posting your question to that forum. Be sure to tell people which software package you are using, as well as the version number - it will help them anmswer your question more directly.

  • I will assume you are using a delivered copy of pdf.pltcfg and that you have a print style that describes your plot area and sets the print as you want.

    Next create a text file (printset.txt) that contains the following Key-in commands:
    mdl load bentley.printorganizer.dll
    PRINTORGANIZER NEW
    PRINTORGANIZER PRINTERDRIVER pdf.pltcfg
    PRINTORGANIZER ADD ACTIVEFILE Multiple_Shapes
    PRINTORGANIZER SUBMITAS SINGLE
    PRINTORGANIZER PRINTDESTINATION $(MS_PLTFILES)$(basename(_DGNFILE)).pdf
    PRINTORGANIZER PRINT ALL
    PRINTORGANIZER DELETE ALL
    PRINTORGANIZER EXIT

    The scripts loads Print Organizer, sets printer driver to pdf.pltcfg, adds mtcoles the active file and calls “Multiple_Shapes” print style, sets print to a single .pdf file, sets the destination according to the variable MS_PLTFILES and names the output file to the design file name, prints, deletes the contents of the .pset and dismisses the Print Organizer interface.
    In the Key-in window, type in the following:
    @printset.txt
    Note, you may have to give the path to the script file.
    A description of each key-in command can be obtain by launching MicroStation Help, expand “Working with Completed Designs”, Expand “Printing”, expand “Using Print Organizer” and “Print Organizer key-ins”.
