Customization

To create or convert files using the command line mode API or ActiveX automation mode interface, it is required to purchase a license of AcroPlot Auto for each server running the process. If there will be additional PC's running AcroPlot Suite licenses or any of its components, then it is also required to purchase the number licenses needed in addition to the AcroPlot Auto server license.

If 50 or more licenses of AcroPlot Suite are purchased, then you are provided with a way to do some basic customization using Visual LISP and your menus to provide single-click output using the AcroPlot AutoCAD Add-in. The cool thing about this is that if you have existing LISP routines or menus for plotting, then you can probably easily replace them with AcroPlot routines to create PDF files and your users won't even know the difference. For some examples please contact us with your specific requirements at sales@cadzation.com

Here are some customized routines we have done for our clients:

Created a DOS command line version for the customer to integrate with their existing document management system to create a PDF of all the named views in the drawing.
Created a DOS command line version for the customer to create a single PDF.

All AcroPlot Suite licenses can access the basic API, however, the user will be prompted with a "Save As" dialogue window to provide the filename to save any files that are created using custom scripts.
