Complete these tasks before using
Batch Print to print drawings from a model.
-
Specify print settings: In addition to using the printing preferences of the default printer,
Batch Print uses print settings stored in the
Revit project.
-
Define view/sheet sets (optional): In
Revit, you can define sets of views and sheets for printing or exporting. For example, you might define one view/sheet set named Construction Documents, and another view/sheet set named Presentation Documents. In
Batch Print, you can then print entire sets or selected views or sheets from sets.
-
Save changes to the project:
Batch Print prints drawings from the saved version of the project file. If you have not saved recent changes, the printed drawings will not show them.
After the batch print job starts, you should not modify the project until the print job finishes. If you start a batch print job and then make and save changes to the project before the print job finishes, some of the printed drawings may reflect the new changes.
