+====== Plotter setup in UGNX 6 x32 on W7 x64 ======
+From: http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=298459
+<code>
+My guess is that you're probably using 64bit Windows 7?
+On 64bit systems (Vista & Win 7), the two variables UGII_SDI_BPS_JOBS_DIR & UGII_SDI_OVERRIDE_HOME need to be set.
+When they are unspecified they are created in the users profile, but Win 7 & Vista works their permissions differently from WinXP.
+Creating those two variables & then pointing them to look at a folder, (c:\temp is the example I would follow) fixes the problem.
+set UGII_BASE_DIR="C:\progra~2\UGS\NX 6.0\"
+set UGII_ROOT_DIR="C:\progra~2\UGS\NX 6.0\UGII"

+To plot in NX, you first define printer in printer group usint **File>Utilities>Printer Administration**.
+After defining the printer group and taking steps to tell NX ou your printer group, you can direct plots
+to a particulay printer by selecting the group and the printer via **File>Plot**.

+#  PLOTTER AND PRINTER ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:
+#
+#  Variables in this section configure SDI plotting software used by NX.
+#
+#  By default, only variable UGII_SDI_BASE is set and other plotting
+#  variables are unset (commented out). NX uses variable UGII_SDI_BASE
+#  to initialize unset variables as shown below.
+#
+#  The base directory where the plot kit can be found.  All variables default
+#  to values based off of this variable.
+#
+UGII_SDI_BASE=${UGII_BASE_DIR}\nxplot
+#
+#  When plotting, NX will automatically append the sheet name to the jobname
+#  so that the files generated for different sheets can be distinguished.  If
+#  the sheet name is not wanted, then set the following variable to disable
+#  this functionality.  Turning this off will generate the same CGM jobname
+#  for multiple sheets, so it should be used with caution.
+#
+#UGII_PLOT_DONT_APPEND_SHEET_NAME=1
+#
+#  The location of the cgm to pdf conversion utility
+#
+UGII_CGM2PDF=${UGII_SDI_BASE}\bin\pdf
+#
+#  When you use cgm2pdf as an image for a plotter queue, the SDI
+#  software will call it with one parameter, the CGM file to be
+#  created.  In this case UGII_PDF_OUTPUT_DIR tells the cgm2pdf
+#  image where the output PDF file is to be created.
+#
+#UGII_PDF_OUTPUT_DIR=
+#
+#  When you use cgm2pdf as an image for a plotter queue, you may
+#  want to append the plotter output into one output PDF file.
+#  Use UGII_PDF_APPEND for this.  If it is set, then append will
+#  be done.  If it does not exist, then appending will not be done.
+#UGII_PDF_APPEND=1
+#
+#  This variable specifies a single printer group directory that is
+#  shared by all users. If you prefer to use multiple printer group
+#  directories, then specify the directories in a printer group list
+#  file instead. Before setting this variable, review printer group
+#  concepts presented in NX Help documentation.
+#
+#UGII_SDI_SERVER_CFG_DIR=${UGII_SDI_BASE}\config\pm_server
+#
+#  The directory that SDI software will use as default for input.  This

+#  in the NX Plot Print screen.
+#
+#UGII_SDI_IP_DIR=${UGII_TMP_DIR}
+#
+#  The directory that SDI software will use as the default for output.  This
+#  will effect the default directory when a user plots to a file.
+#
+#UGII_SDI_OP_DIR=${UGII_TMP_DIR}
+#
+#  SDI software will normally add a PS command to HPGL and HPGL/2 output.  You
+#  can turn off this behavior by setting the following variable to 1.
+#
+#UGII_SDI_CGM_HPGL_NO_PS=1
+#
+# The following variable is used to control the resolution used to convert
+# a CGM to an EMF file when printing a wireframe display.  The default
+# resolution is 600 DPI, the variable can be set from 200 to 9600.
+#UGII_SDI_CGM2EXP_RESOLUTION=600
+#
+#  Set the following variable to cause the SDI printing software to suppress
+#  the generation of registration marks at the corner of HPGL output.  Note
+#  This variable should be used instead of UGII_IGNORE_OFFSET which it
+#  replaces.
+# UGII_SDI_IGNORE_HPGL_OFFSET=1
+#
+#  Set the following variable to cause the SDI printing software to suppress
+#  the generation of registration marks at the corner of HPGL-2 output.
+# UGII_SDI_IGNORE_HPGL2_OFFSET=1
+#
+#  Set the following variable to cause the SDI printing software to suppress the
+#  message box that the Image exceeds the printable page size.
+# UGII_SDI_IGNORE_SIZE_WARNING=1
+#
+#  Set the following variable to specify the location for the output of the
+#  Gerber format executable
+#

+#
+#  This is the directory the SDI software uses to look for executables.

+.4 lmgrd
+    lmgrd is the main daemon program for FLEXlm. When you invoke lmgrd, it looks for the license file
+    which contains the information about vendors and features. On Unix systems, it is strongly recommended
+    that lmgrd be run as a non-privileged user (not root).
+    Usage is:
+    lmgrd [ -app ] [ -c license_file ] [ -t timeout_interval ] [ -l logfile ]
+          [ -s timestamp_interval ] [ -2 -p ] [ -v ] [ -x lmdown ] [ -x lmremove ]
+    -app
+    Required for Windows/NT systems.
+    -c license_file
+    Use the license file named.
+    -t timeout_interval
+    Sets a timeout interval, in seconds, during which redundant daemons must complete their
+    connections to each other. The default value is 10 seconds. A larger value may be desirable
+    if the daemons are being run on busy systems or a very heavily loaded network.
+    -l logfile
+    Write the debug log to logfile.
+    -s timestamp_interval
+    Specifies the logfile timestamp interval, in minutes. The default is 360 minutes.
+    -2 -p
+    Restricts usage of lmdown, lmreread, and lmremove to a FLEXlm administrator who is
+    by default root. If there a Unix group called `lmadmin' then use is restricted to
+    only members of that group. If root is not a member of this group, then root does
+    not have permission to use any of the above utilities. The `-p' option is available
+    in FLEXlm v2.4 and later.
+    -v
+    Prints lmgrd's version number and copyright and exits.
+    -x lmdown
+    Disallow the lmdown command (no user can run lmdown). If lmdown is disabled, you will need
+    to stop lmgrd via `kill pid' (Unix) or CTRL-ALT-DEL and stop the lmgrd and vendor daemon
+    processes (Windows 95). On Unix, be sure the kill command does not have a -9 argument.
+    -x lmremove
+    Disallow the lmremove command (no user can run lmremove)
+    The -x lmdown and -x lmremove options are available in FLEXlm v4.0 and later.
+.3 lmdown
+    The lmdown utility allows for the graceful shutdown of all license daemons (both lmgrd and all vendor daemons)
+    on all nodes.
+    Usage is:
+    lmdown [-c license_file] [-q]
+    -c license_file
+    Use the specified license file.
+    -q
+    Don't prompt or print a header. Otherwise lmdown asks `Are you sure? [y/n]: `.
+    You should protect the execution of lmdown, since shutting down the servers
+    causes users to lose their licenses. See the `-p' or the `-x' options in
+    Section 6.4, `lmgrd,' on page 41 for details about securing access to lmdown.
+    When shutting down redundant servers, there is a 1 minute delay before the servers shut down.
+    Do not use `kill -9' to shut down the license servers.
