Batch Printing In Draftsight 2025: Step by Step Guide

DraftSight 2025 is a powerful and user-friendly CAD software designed for professional 2D and 3D design, and one of its key features is the ability to print multiple drawings at once using the batch print function. Whether you need to print a series of engineering drawings, blueprints, or architectural plans, batch printing can save you time and increase productivity.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to efficiently use the batch printing feature in DraftSight 2025.

What is Batch Printing?

Batch printing allows you to print multiple files (or drawings) simultaneously without opening each individual file. This feature is particularly helpful when you have numerous documents to print in a consistent format and want to streamline your printing workflow.

Why Use Batch Printing in DraftSight 2025?

  • Save Time: Rather than opening each drawing individually and printing them one by one, batch printing allows you to print multiple drawings in one go.
  • Consistency: Batch printing ensures that all the drawings are printed with the same settings and scale.
  • Efficiency: If you have a series of revisions or updates to print, batch printing ensures no files are missed.

Steps to Batch Print in DraftSight 2025

Follow these steps to batch print your files in DraftSight 2025:

  1. Prepare Your Drawings

Before initiating the batch print, make sure all the files you want to print are ready and saved in a specific folder. You can print any number of files, so ensure they are properly named and organized.

2. Access the Batch Print Feature

To begin the batch printing process:

  • Open DraftSight 2025.
  • Navigate to the File menu and select Batch Print.
  • Alternatively, you can type BATCHPRINT into the command line to quickly access the batch print dialog.

3. Select the Files for Batch Printing

In the Batch Print dialog:

  • Click on Add Files to select the drawings you wish to print. You can choose multiple files from your computer or navigate to the folder where your drawings are stored.
  • You can also use Add Folder if you want to batch print all the files in a specific folder.

4. Choose Print Settings

Once your files are selected, customize the printing settings:

  • Printer Configuration: Select the printer you’ll be using for the batch print.
  • Page Size and Scale: Choose the correct page size and scale for all your drawings. Ensure they’re consistent across all files to avoid misprints.
  • Sheet Orientation: Decide whether the drawings should be printed in portrait or landscape orientation.
  • Plot Style: Select the appropriate plot style (e.g., color, grayscale, monochrome).

5. Choose Output Options

You can also configure output options, such as:

  • Save to PDF: If you prefer to create PDFs instead of printing to a physical printer, DraftSight allows you to select a PDF printer driver.
  • Output Folder: If you are saving the files in a different location or outputting PDFs, choose a folder where the files will be saved.
  • Printing Order: You can specify whether to print files in the order they were added or reverse the order.

6. Start the Batch Print Process

Once all settings are configured, click the Start Plot button. DraftSight will begin the batch printing process and send each drawing to the designated printer or plotter based on your selected settings.

7. Monitor and Complete the Process

The progress of the batch print will be displayed in a status bar. Depending on the number of files and the complexity of the drawings, it may take some time to complete. You can monitor the progress and make adjustments if necessary.

Conclusion:

Batch printing in DraftSight is a powerful feature that can save you valuable time and effort when working with multiple CAD drawings. By setting up your documents and configuring the right print settings, you can easily print a large number of files without having to manage each one separately. Whether you're printing architectural plans, engineering drawings, or any other technical documents, batch printing helps streamline the process and ensures consistency. Keep these tips in mind to get the most out of this useful tool!

3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS SHARE AND MARKUP

SOLIDWORKS Share and Markup simplifies design sharing with external stakeholders. They can view, annotate, and share comments on your designs. SOLIDWORKS Share and Markup streamlines collaboration. It allows external stakeholders to interact with your designs by viewing, annotating, and sharing comments. This functionality is available to anyone who has the 3DSwymer, Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS or 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS roles.

A key benefit of Share and Markup is that the recipient doesn't need a 3DEXPERIENCE role or SOLIDWORKS license. This allows them to view the file, make notes, and share comments with you directly. You only need a 3DEXPERIENCE account, which is free to create. This way, you can avoid the hassle of alternative file sharing tools that can add unnecessary overhead to your design collaboration process.

1. How to enable Share and Markup capabilities

To share files with external recipient some initial setup is required using the Drives Control Center app. The platform Administrator must turn on:

  • Allow platform members to share content with external users by link.
  • Allow external users to view and comment on shared content.

These settings are located on “Share with External” tab.

2. Sharing a file from SOLIDWORKS

In SOLIDWORKS you chose the file format to share. From the “Lifecycle and Collaboration” tab you can select the ‘arrow down’ on the “Share a file” button and then select the desired file format.

In this example 3DXML is chosen, this is the recommended format for sharing an assembly. The 3DXML file will contain all of child components and sub-assemblies.

After choosing the file format, you can create the sharable link. Click the “Share a file” command again and a formatted file is created and placed in your 3DDrive application, in the folder named “Shared with external”.

plus, a dialog box will appear with an option to enable guests to comment on the file, plus an option to restrict access to specific users. If you do NOT enable “restrict access to specific users” anyone with the shared link can access the file.

However, if you activate “Restrict access to specific users” you will have the option to type in the email address of the person you wish to share your file with or multiple email addresses if several persons are to be involved and finally, you can add a message in the dialog box.

Having applied the required settings, next click the “Share” button, to automatically send an email to your chosen recipient that will include a link to the file and a message.

The recipient will receive an email with a subject line stating the name of the sender, the name of the file, and a link to access the shared file.

When recipients click on the link, they will be prompted to set up a free 3DEXPERIENCE ID account, if they don’t have one already. If they do have an account, they can just select the link and access the model by signing in to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Note: They must use the same email address entered when creating the shared link.

3. Adding annotations and comments to the shared file

Once the recipient has logged in, they can access the model from their browser, which will take them to the shared model in the 3DPlay viewer application, where they can rotate, view, mark up, and comment on it using the intuitive tools in 3DPlay.

All the recipient needs to do is hover over the icons to get a description of the various tools to begin a “mark-up” procedure.

As an example, they can click on the Edit Clipping tool, which cuts through objects using a section plane to view and to access details inside an object, and also to measure hidden items.

4. Sharing annotations and comments with the original sender

Recipients can save their markups/comments as a snapshot by hitting the "Share as Comment" command. This will then display the snapshot in the Comments window on the right side of their screen.

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform will notify the original sender when the feedback has been applied and sent.

Clicking on the notification displays the 3DPlay app in the SOLIDWORKS task pane, where of the annotations and comments made by the recipient of the file can be viewed.

5. 3DDrive: Locating Shared Files

The process which has just been described, seems very automatic and simple, and so it is. However, it’s always important to be aware of where the shared files are located, if you, at some point, wish to search for a specific file and other files that might have been shared.

By opening the 3DDrive application, searching can be performed in SolidWorks as well, simply locating the 3DDrive application through the Compass and open it.

The 3DDrive application appears and shows all the 3DDrive folders you have access to. When you share a file like shown in previous steps, the folder “Shared with external” is automatically created and to be found in the “My Files” folder.

This is where all the files you have shared using the “Share a file” feature in SOLIDWORKS are be located.

All the files you have shared from SOLIDWORKS are accessible from this folder. From here you have several options, for example viewing the information of the files you have shared and previewing it so you are able to see exactly what the external recipient is seeing when they open the file in the browser.We recommend deleting the file, but be aware that this will also remove all comments and markups attached to it. The 3DDrive file, not the copy in your 3DSpace, stores this information

6. Adding new users to existing shared files

If you want to add more external recipients to collaborate with, you can do it from the folder as well. Just select the desired file, select the share button and then the “Share with external” tab and you get the same window as described previously.

Note: Although there is an expiration date “30 days from link creation” it is only the link to the file that expires, not the file itself. We will keep the shared file in the 3DDrive until we remove it.

7. Revoking access to shared files

You have the option to revoke the shared access. When you have located the file you wish to revoke access from in the 3DDrive “Share with external” folder, open the “Share with external” tab in the “Share this file” menu.

Select the “Authorized list”

This program will show you the list of authorized users for this file. You can then select the recycle bin icon next to a user to revoke their access.

Share and Markup – use case examples

In this chapter you will find 3 use cases for sharing documents. These examples are commonly used by consultant designers, suppliers, and manufacturers in their daily information exchange.

1. Sharing a SOLIDWORKS drawing

Let’s say you need to share 2D drawing with a supplier. In this case you have made some changes to an original part and would like to get feedback from the supplier.

From the drawing in SOLIDWORKS, you can share the file as PDF, DXF, DWG and PNG.

Having chosen PDF as file format - select “Share a file” again. In this example we will not restrict the access to the file, so we will just make sure that the “Enable guest comments” is active and then click the “Copy external link” followed by “Close”.

The dialogue closes with a message stating that you have uploaded the file to 3DDrive. And if you forget to copy the link before closing the “Share a file” window, there is a Copy Link button in the info pop-up. This pop-up will disappear after a while. Hovering over it, will keep it visible.

We can send the copied link to an external supplier by email.

The external recipient pastes the link into a browser. They can then log in to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform using their account credentials to view the file.

The recipient can now access the drawing and start giving feedback. They can also share comments as described previously.

2. Sharing a design for manufacture

We have approved your design and it is ready for manufacturing. Now you need to send the 3D file. You could send it as a STEP file or as a native SLDPRT file. This can in some cases make it much easier to start producing data for CNC machining or 3D Printing.

We can easily share a file after making modifications. Simply select 'Share a file' and a dialog box will appear, allowing you to update the existing file.

The update process retains all previous annotations and comments, allowing the communication thread to continue seamlessly.

3. Sharing a large assembly design for review

When dealing with large assemblies, sharing a design efficiently can pose a real challenge as file sizes can get large. Previously, opening a large assembly, even in lightweight mode, often required recipients to use a workstation with the native CAD application installed.

This task is now much easier in SOLIDWORKS by utilizing a combination of the 3DXML file format and the Share a File feature.

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform allows you to view 3DXML files on both workstations and mobile devices. As long as you access the received link for the shared file – you will be able to open, view, zoom and rotate, explode even complicated assemblies.

Let’s have a look at an example using an all-terrain adventure bike designed by Bowhead Corp.

I have opened the assembly in SOLIDWORKS and prepared it for sharing by selecting 3DXML as the file format.

The user selects the "Share a file" command and then proceeds to follow the sharing procedure outlined earlier.

The recipient clicks the link and logs in to 3DEXPERIENCE. They can then easily view the assembly and add comments. A non-windows device took these screenshots.

Share and Markup compared with traditional methods of file sharing.

Using the Share and Markup workflow can remove the need to use traditional methods of file sharing. Traditional methods of file sharing include PDFs, screenshots of models in documents, and even SolidWorks Pack and Go. These methods often require multiple applications and can cause compatibility issues. Share and markup takes away previously used unstructured workflows and eliminates the typical obstacles in historical file sharing which include:

  • The need for various applications for saving and viewing files.
  • File sizes exceeding mailbox capacity.
  • File formats not compatible with recipient operating system or applications for viewing.

1. Share and Markup summary

SOLIDWORKS Share and Markup offers a powerful solution for sharing designs with external stakeholders. This functionality leverages the Share a File command and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. It eliminates the need for less efficient file sharing methods. With SOLIDWORKS Share and Markup, you eliminate the hassle of manual file zipping, email limitations, and recipient software downloads. Now, anyone can view and comment on your designs using a simple web link. The browser supports the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. This allows recipients to view and add comments to shared files on a mobile device.

SOLIDWORKS Share and Markup streamlines design collaboration. Designers and stakeholders can work together efficiently, getting products to market faster.
