Create a drawing in . SLDDRW and PDF at the same time

Hello

 

I wanted to know in solidworks from 2013, if it was possible that once you have created your drawing, when you save it, you can save it and create a pdf file at the same time, without needing to do it afterwards.

 

THANK YOU

Hello

It is possible to do this with a macro.

No, it's not possible just with SolidWorks

 

On the other hand:

-  if you have the Axemble utilities, you can use BATCHCONVERTER.

If all your drawings are stored in the same directory, you can run the BATCHCONVERTER every evening on this directory while choosing the current date from the filters.

Result: this app will automatically convert all your new drawings to you.

 

- if you have the EPDM, each time you validate your drawings, it can convert them to the format(s ) you want.

Hello

I think that saving in pdf coupled with saving the plan is not very advisable. Indeed, the need for a pdf arises when the plan has reached a final state of design. As flegendre says, it is best to process this task in bulk with a tool such as "BatchConverter" from the myCADtools suite.

Kind regards
