To exclude model space from the default sheet list when using the PUBLISH command in AutoCAD, the correct approach is to deselect the "Include Model When Adding Sheets" option. This option helps streamline the publishing process by allowing you to control which layouts or views are included in the output, focusing solely on designated paper space layouts while excluding model space from the list.

By selecting this option prior to publishing, you ensure that only the desired sheets are processed, thereby preventing any unintended inclusion of model space. This is particularly useful in scenarios where the details in model space are not required in the output, allowing for a more organized and relevant set of documents.

Other potential choices may offer options that aren't part of the PUBLISH command's functionality or might change the settings inappropriately, leading to confusion or an unintended inclusion of model space instead of excluding it.
