setting default plotter configuration file...

I have a "custom" pcf file placed in <loadpoint>\text\plot_config and it works just fine (only change is to add a 0.25 offset in both x and y). I am wondering if there is a way to SET this specific pcf file as my "default"... Right now my WF3 configuration will come up with "MS Printer Manager" set as thedestination when I go to print. I know I could play "file name" games to switch the pcf files around, but I onlyneed this offset when I amworking on a specific project(which has unique formats)otherwise, thenormal?PTC supplied default MS_Printer_Manager.pcf is just fine.


thanks in advance...


Paul.
