How do I print all layouts to PDF at once in AutoCAD?

What cadssistant does

1. Lists the drawing's layouts and checks that the drawing has been saved, since its folder is where the PDFs go.
2. Plots each layout in turn through that layout's own page setup (paper size, plot area, scale, plot style) with the DWG To PDF device, and waits for each file before starting the next.
3. Saves them beside the DWG as site-A-101.pdf, site-A-102.pdf and so on, and replies with the list of files. A layout that fails to plot is named with the reason; the others still plot.

By hand, at the command line

Command: -PLOT
Detailed plot configuration? [Yes/No] <No>: N
Enter a layout name or [?] <A-101>: A-101
Enter a page setup name <>: ↵
Enter an output device name or [?] <DWG To PDF.pc3>: DWG To PDF.pc3
Enter file name <C:\Projects\site-A-101.pdf>: ↵
Save changes to page setup [Yes/No]? <N>: N
Proceed with plot [Yes/No] <Y>: Y

One layout per -PLOT; repeat it for each, or use PUBLISH for the whole set. With background plotting on, the command returns before the PDF is written.

Good to know

• A failed layout usually has a page setup the PDF device can't honour, such as a paper size it doesn't have. Fix that layout's page setup and plot it again by name.
• Model space plots too ("plot Model to PDF"). If it has no plot area of its own, it's plotted to its extents, fitted and centred on the page, and its settings are put back afterwards.
