Hi Sky,

This functionality will be available in Creo Parametric 4.0.  For now, use one of the two following workarounds:

  1. Fastest way would be creating a new format file using the saved section file and export to DWG/DXF
    1. File > New > Format > OK
    2. Choose Empty with Section under template Options in New Format dialog
    3. Hit Browse and select the saved section file (*.sec)
    4. Hit OK to create new format file
    5. Export the format file using File > Save as > set type to DWG or DXF
  2. Create a sketch datum curve importing the saved section file, create a new drawing for the part and export the drawing to DWG/DXF

Thanks,

Amit

People pay $$$$ for a basic functionality that is there, but yet not available until Creo Parametric 4.0. WOW!
