The Sheet Set Manager in Civil 3D allows you to organize, manage,
00:08
and plot sheets to arrange your project information efficiently and effectively.
00:13
Once you have created a sheet set, you can easily publish the sheet set to PDF.
00:19
Begin with your sheet set created and the Sheet Set Manager open in Civil 3D.
00:24
Right-click the sheet set to view the sharing and publishing options,
00:28
which include eTransmit and the option to be used in this example, publish to PDF.
00:34
Before selecting this option, the application needs to know where the CAD standards are stored.
00:40
With the sheet set selected, in the Sheet Set Properties, expand the Support file location drop-down and click Browse.
00:48
Navigate to the folder with the CAD standards, and then select the checkbox next to Support Files.
00:55
Click Select.
00:57
The application searches the folders for applicable files and indexes them.
01:02
In the Sheet Set Manager, a message indicates the indexing was successful.
01:07
Close the message and Save your drawing.
01:10
Now you are ready to plot the sheets.
01:13
Right-click the sheet set and select Publish to PDF.
01:17
In the Publish Settings dialog, expand the Output format to plot the set as either a Single multi-page PDF file, as in this example,
01:26
or a Separate PDF for each page.
01:29
Change the name of the PDF, if needed, and set the location.
01:35
By default, the PDF will be saved to the sheet set folder, but you can click the folder icon to change the location.
01:42
You can also choose to version files with duplicate names,
01:46
but since this is the first time publishing the sheet set, this option is not needed.
01:51
Click Publish.
01:53
Note that when you publish sheets in the cloud, all of the processing happens in the cloud,
01:57
so it does not require bandwidth on your local machine.
02:01
Once complete, you see a message in the Sheet Set Manager indicating that publishing succeeded, and the PDF was uploaded.
02:09
Now, when you view your project in Autodesk Docs and open the Sheet Set folder, you see the published PDF.
02:16
Click the PDF to open it, and in this case, you can see the Details, General Notes, and Cover Sheet all included in the single PDF.
