With the ProjectWise Connector, the plot file submittal process is easy and convenient since users can work directly from the ProjectWise environment to submit plot files to Plot Station.
ProjectWise users can submit individual or multiple files including different file types such as DWG, PDF, PostScript, HPGL, and raster, directly to Plot Station.
Once the files are in Plot Station, users have access to all the features and controls they are familiar with such as the ability to organise drawings and plot collated sets.

Easier access to complex technical software
The latest version of the EASA (Enterprise Accessible Software Applications) package provides substantial improvements in its ability to provide simplified access to complex technical software.
Another feature of the ProjectWise Connector lets users manage their Plot Station plot request files (PRFs), pen tables and metafiles directly within ProjectWise along with their CAD files.
The ProjectWise Connector maintains the relationship between the CAD files and the corresponding PRFs to ensure accurate, consistent output.
When files are submitted from ProjectWise to Plot Station for plotting, the ProjectWise Connector gathers and submits all associated files such as reference files or raster attachments or metafiles.
This ensures that all necessary files are submitted for correct output.
The ProjectWise Connector can be installed by the user without any need for custom programming services.

"The ProjectWise Connector helps Plot Station users be more productive when working within the ProjectWise environment", says James Dyer, Director of Product Marketing at Bentley.
ProjectWise provides the best integrated environment for managing architecture, engineering and construction content, and the connector from eQuorum extends that integration to Plot Station users".
