Publishing sheet lists

Publishing sheet lists

A sheet list is a collection of sheets that you want to publish using the Publish command. Each sheet in the list references a model or layout tab from any drawing.

First you create a sheet list by specifying the drawing and which of its model and layout tabs that you want to publish. For each sheet, you can assign a page setup and layer state. Save the sheet list, then publish it. You can publish sheet lists to a printer or plotter and to the following file formats: PDF, DWF, and DWFx.  

Sheet lists are saved as Drawing Set Description files (.dsd files). If you move a .dsd file to another computer, its referenced .dwg files should also be moved.

Another way to publish drawings is using sheet sets which are saved in .dst files and published from the Sheet Set Manager pane.For more details, see Publishing sheet sets.
