guthrie CAD Batch Command 10
 
 
CAD Batch Command is a valuable extension to our range of CAD products.
 
    CAD Batch Command enables two main categories of operation:

1. Batch printing and conversion of CAD drawings via the command line

CAD Batch Command 10 converts CAD drawings to formats such as BMP, JPG, PDF, and TIFF, or similarly prints CAD drawings, with the ability to convert or print thousands of drawings in a single operation.

2. Open drawings in a CAD Viewer window via a simple call or link

Drawings may be loaded into the software's CAD Viewer window, at a specified view, or zoom location.  The software's viewer window may be opened using a file link (e.g. from a speadsheet), or via a simple call from your own application or third party application (e.g. database or software for example, to load and view the drawing.)  After the drawing is loaded the user has access to all the standard CAD Viewer 10 functionality, such as zoom, pan, print, save, etc.
The diagram below shows an example call to zoom to a pre-defined location on the drawing (e.g. from a database or other application). Open the drawing ‘lift_basement01.dwg’ and center the zoom at coordinates 12,12, with a window height of 4: bc10.exe C:\diagrams\lift_basement01.dwg /Z=12,12,4
