I've made a plot button to -plot using the command line and it doesn't work.
(may have something to do with why my publish isn't working).
If I go into the plot dialog box and change page setup to <none> the button
works but if I use a page setup name nothing gets printed but it prints from
the dialog box.

This doesn't work:

Detailed plot configuration? [Yes/No] <No>:
Enter a layout name or [?] <Cover>:
Enter a page setup name <Xerox 11x17 Mono>:
Enter an output device name or [?] <Xerox WorkCentre Pro 32 C PS.pc3>:
Write the plot to a file [Yes/No] <N>:
Save changes to page setup [Yes/No]? <N>
Proceed with plot [Yes/No] <Y>:


This does work:

Detailed plot configuration? [Yes/No] <No>:
Enter a layout name or [?] <Cover>:
Enter a page setup name <>:
Enter an output device name or [?] <Xerox WorkCentre Pro 32 C PS.pc3>:
Write the plot to a file [Yes/No] <N>:
Save changes to page setup [Yes/No]? <N>
Proceed with plot [Yes/No] <Y>:

While you wait...

Since you went to the trouble to Automate, why not go all the way and
recreate all the 11x17 mono requirements too? Simply answer YES to perform a
detailed plot configuration, that way you will always know what you will get
all the time and not be at the mercy of a pagesetup change.

I was able to correct the problem by rebuilding my page setup for the Xerox
11x17 Mono and saving it again. It also fixed some of my Publish problems.
