• Publish to DWFx The entire sheet set prints to DWFx. In the dialog box that displays, select a name and location for the output .dwfx file, then click Save.

Sheet List Displays the contents of the open sheet set: sheet set name, subset names, and sheet names. Note that sheet names display with the sheet number, drawing name, and layout name. Right-click an item in the list to choose options:

• Close Sheet Set Unloads the sheet set. (Available only when you right-click the name of a sheet set.)
• Open Opens the sheet's corresponding Layout tab of the referenced drawing. If Open is unavailable, double-click the sheet instead to link it to the corresponding drawing. (Available only when you right-click a sheet.)
• New Sheet Creates a new sheet in the New Sheet dialog box and adds it below the item you right-clicked. If you are adding a sheet to a sheet set or subset that is set up to prompt for a template, the Select Layout as Sheet Template dialog box displays before the New Sheet dialog box.
• New Subset Creates a new subset and add it below the item you right-clicked. The Subset Properties dialog box displays. (Available only when you right-click a sheet set or subset.)
• Import Layout as Sheet Creates a sheet from an existing layout using the Import Layouts as Sheets dialog box.
• Remove Sheet Deletes the sheet.
• Rename and Renumber Changes the name or number of the sheet in the Sheet Properties dialog box.
• Publish Allows you to publish the sheet set, subset, or individual sheet directly to PDF, DWF, DWFx, or a printer. Or you can choose to set publish options without printing by choosing Sheet Set PDF Publish Options or the Sheet Set DWF Publish Options.
• eTransmit Prepares the sheet set, subset, or individual sheet for transfer to another computer using the eTransmit dialog box.
• Properties Displays properties for a sheet set, subset, or sheet, depending on what you right-clicked. The Sheet Set Properties, Subset Properties, or Sheet Properties dialog box displays where you can view and change properties.
