Anyone have a way to export to a specific autocad "template". Would be nice not to have to go to each view that comes with the revit file and make all the same adjustments like creating a viewport no plot layer and others.
Sorry if this is a duplicate- I didn't see it post.

Use the View Template under View. You can create multiple views and save them and apply them to other views. You can also put these into your Revit template file for future projects. I also found you can highlight the views in your project directory and right click and apply the template. Note: that the templates apply to everything including scale. Revit 9.0 version has another filtering process that might make this easier. I have not reviewed this yet.

Sounds like you're describing creating multiple views in Revit. Does this also somehow streamline the process of exporting to AutoCad, because when doing so you get a layout .dwg for each Revit sheet and the individual view .dwg's that are xref'd into that layout .dwg.
The hoped for result is to mirror the Revit project in the AutoCad files instead of trying to do it in Revit.
Problem is you have to go to each individual view .dwg, in this case about 40 views, and create a no plot v port layer, or however you choose to not have things plot that you don't want plotted. Also, you have to mirror each view, again about 40 in this case.
I gave up on trying to mirror a project in Revit after about six attempts and eight hours.
Do you think it would just be easier to redraw the project.

When exporting DWG's out of revit there is an option to bind all xrefs into the sheet file.
With regards to the Viewport layer, check you layer export settings in revit. Revit exports out the viewports to a specific layer. We set ours to export to defpoints which is by default non-plot.
HTH.

Thank you.
I forgot about that whole concept, still swimming in the learning curve.
