I have a bunch of files created in Acad 2002 that I am trying to run through
the Publish command in Acad 2005 in order to make DWFs of each sheet.
The files do not have individual Page Setups for plotting a DWF, but I was
hoping that I could import a Page Seup to use for all sheets - this is how I
did it in the Acad 2002 Batch Plot utility. I don't have a lot of
experience with the 2005 Publish command.

When I add the files to the Publish dialog box, I can import a Page Setup
that I have used previously - The Page Setup uses the PublishToWeb DWF.pc3
as the plotter. "Publish to" is set to DWF File.

I hit Publish, and it goes through some motions in the background then
returns with the following errors in the log.

Job: - Error(s) Did Not Plot

I hope I'm missing something obvious. Thanks in advance for any help.

there is no PublishToWeb DWF.pc3 in 2005

you would have to recreate the pagesetup to use DWF ePlot.pc3
