Hello,

we run a script and then print resulting drawing to PDF multiple times a day. I am interested if that process can be automated?

To go a bit more into details. I wrote a Java program which takes some user input, collects data from our database, and with that data creates a .scr file. Then we open DraftSight, manually run the .scr file, and then print the drawing to a PDF file, all through our GUI. Our goal would be to automate this manual part. Is it possible to call DraftSight from command line with a .scr file as command line parameter? Or is it maybe possible to use API calls to make DraftSight to run a .scr script and save a DWG file (to be then converted to PDF... somehow). What are our options here?

We have DraftSight Professional.

Kind regards,

Nikola
