Lỗi there were no plottable sheets in the current operation năm 2024

I have been getting an error while publishing lately and am not sure how to fix it. The error message reads:

The current operation encountered problems processing one or more sheets and the plot job has been cancelled. To successfully complete this operation remove any unplottable sheets from the job prior to running it. For a summary of which sheets are unplottable, refer to plot log file.

Has anyone else gotten this one?

YES!!!! It's driven me crazy.

I think the log will show you which sheet it's failing on. Or (assuming you are publishing in the background), you can let the mouse hover over the publish icon in the lower-right corner of the screen, and watch it as it goes through the pages, noting where it fails. Then you have one of two issues going on:

Issue 1

The link between the Sheet Set and the Layout is corrupted. I've been able to fix this problem by removing the layout from the Sheet Set, creating an entirely new Layout, deleting the old layout, and then linking the new layout back into the Sheet Set.

Issue 2

In at least 2007 and 2008, it seems to be bad news to delete the only layout in a drawing. If you do this, Autocad will automatically create a new layout, since there must be at least one layout in every DWG file. However, when it does this, it leaves a "husk" of the old layout behind. You can see this husk if you open the problem drawing and type PUBLISH - it should appear as an uninitialized layout in the drawing. This "husk" seems to be bad news. It makes it so the SSM cannot use the DWG file at all. I have not been able to find any way of removing the "husk". The only solution here is to completely recreate the entire DWG.

good to know yeah i read another post on cadtutor i think that said:

By default, every new DWG has two phantom "uninitialized layouts" that can't be plotted or published because they haven't been properly configured. You can either delete "Layout1" and "Layout2" or you can click on those layout tabs prior to running PUBLISH so that they get configured with default paper sizes and settings.

i tried to go back and look at the persons autocad plot messages but they had closed acad so i will have to look another time. we are not using sheet sets here but i have seen unitialized layouts in publish box from time to time. i will play around with it now and see if i can reproduce errors

That person must be talking about one or more of the default DWT files that ship with Autocad.

We actually don't use any of those, so we don't have the two layouts mentioned in our new drawings. But we've definitely run into the two problems I mentioned.

we dont use the otb templates either but that's all i really found on the subject on the net. i will have to troubleshoot it when it occurs again, for now i'm merely guessing.

You have Plot/Publish in background enabled and you are receiving Dialog Box Warnings that cannot be seen.

Solution:

You have Plot/Publish in background enabled and you are receiving Dialog Box Warnings that cannot be seen.

Disabled Plot/Publish in Background

  1. Go to Options Dialog.
  2. Go to the “Plot and Publish” Tab.
  3. Uncheck the boxes enabling Plot/Publish in background.
  4. Select “OK”.
  5. Test Publishing again.

You may now be asked questions such as

Note: Select Remember my choice and click yes.

Now Test your “Background” Publish again.
