Forum Post: Plot Schematic Hierarchy into single file

$

Hi, I did set up my .cdsplotinit to call a script, which allows me to print into PDFs. That is working fine for single schematic pages. When doing a hierarchical plot from a schematic, it seems like for every plot a new print job is spooled into the print queue. For this case I do have the workaround, to concatenate all jobs (postscript files) into a single postscript-file and generate a PDF (which is overwritten during each job process) - by the last job I do have a PDF containing all schematic pages from the hierarchy. The problem is, that the concatenated postscript file still exists and I have to delete it manually to get an empty file for the next print-job. Question 1: Is it possible to have only one print job started for a hierarchical plot, containing all schematic pages ? This would simplify the plotting and I would not need to concatenate print jobs. Question 2: Is it possible to get a trigger/function after the last print job that allows me to delete the concatenated postscript-file ? I can see the log in the CIW window that says "INFO (SCH-1272): Successfully plotted 3 cellviews" and I would make use of this function if possible.
