Creating Packages from Drawing Sheet Sets

From the Sheet Set Manager palette, you can create a package from an entire drawing sheet set or subset, or from a single drawing sheet.

The Pack Go option is available in the Sheet Set Manager context menu.

The Pack and Go dialog box lets you specify the files that you want to include in the package.

To create a package from a drawing sheet set:

  1. In the Sheet Set Manager, open the drawing sheet set that you want to send.
  2. On the Drawing Sheet List tab, do one of the following:
    • To pack an entire drawing sheet set: Right-click a drawing sheet set.
    • To pack a drawing sheet subset: Right-click a drawing sheet subset
    • To pack the specified drawing sheet or a drawing sheet selection: Right-click a drawing sheet
  3. From the context menu, select Pack and Go.

    The Pack and Go dialog box appears.

  4. In the Pack and Go dialog box, specify the files to include in the package:
    • On the Drawing Sheet tab, specify the drawing sheets to include in the package by selecting the checkbox in front of the drawing sheet name.
    • On the Tree tab and the Table tab, add or remove drawing files, dependent files, and any other files.
  5. Click Settings to set preferences for the packaging.
  6. Set options in the Pack and Go Settings dialog box.

    See Setting Preferences for Packaging Drawings.

  7. Click View Report to view a summary of the package contents.

    The Report dialog box shows detailed information about the package contents and provides distribution recommendations. The report may be written to a text file.

  8. Optionally, in Package notes to include, type notes to include in the package (for example, project status information).
  9. Click OK.
  10. Type the file name for the ZIP file and click Save.
