.dwg to .pdf with pen settings

I just installed Acrobat 8 Professional and got the "create pdf" icon inserted into my autocad 2005 toolbar. I love the feature, but cannot figure out how to get my autocad pen settings to apply to the pdf's that are created this way. If I use autocad's plot command to make pdf's one at a time, I can get the pen setting to apply there, but would like to save time and create multiple at a time, but need the pen setting to apply. Can this be done?

Great question, but, as of today the only way we do it is if you go in and set them manually, the batch PDF Maker in AutoCAD will look at what is saved in the Page Settings (for paperspace) and use that. This is something we are looking at for a future release.
