AutoCAD Based Plot (Ribbon/Toolbar/Location)

Button: Plot Error Type: Missing pipe

Description:

When using 'Publish selected layouts' or doing a batch plot in AutoCAD 2024, the riser nipple/vertial pipe does not display correctly.  It'll either be missing outright or a proxy bounding box will be in its place.  If you plot a single sheet, it works fine.

AutoCAD 2024 single plot

 

 

Solutions:

Cause:

Unknown but seems to be related to AutoCAD 2024 batch plots only

Solution:

Two suggestions would be;

1. Open the drawing in an older version of AutoCAD and try the batch plot there

 

2. Using INSERTCLASSIC, insert the drawing into a new HydraCAD template and reattempt the batch plot in Acad 2024.  Below is the result of the plot after inserting it into a new drawing.
