I am hoping that I can do this, but I have not found a way yet:

I have a prototype set of plans from a client that we would like to print for in-house work at half-sized. The drawings are all 24x36 single page PDF's - meaning that I have 60+ sheets (files) to print. Is there some way I can

1. Batch Plot them all without having to open every, single, file?
2. Force them to print half size or do a different page size (Arch C in this case)?
3. Easily merge them so I can print just one file?


Thank you for your time.

ps. i really like this smiley: :1_21:

i ended up reconfiguring my plotter to print Arch C and scale to fit. not a pretty solution and it took forever, but it worked.

thanks for the link to page organizer - ill look into it over the next week or so. =D
