How to use the Smart Batch Plot function to batch plot multiple documents?
The Smart Batch Plot function is available in ZWCAD 2024 and newer versions, allowing you to plot multiple documents at once.
Here's how to use it:
1. Open the Smart Batch Plot tool: Go to File > Smart Batch Plot or type the ZWPLOT command.

2. In the What to plot section, select Multi-document plot.
3. Next, set your Plot style, and then define the your desired Output path.
4. Click Select multiple files to open the file selection window.

5. Select all the required plot files in the folder and click OK.

6. Finally, click Plot. zwcad-flex will execute the plotting process in the background until it's complete.

The Smart Batch Plot function provides a fast and highly efficient way to handle heavy printing workflows across multiple files without opening each drawing manually. By leveraging the ZWPLOT command to load multiple documents and executing the print routine in the background, you can maintain standard output configurations across your projects while maximizing drawing production time.
