Question

PTC Creo Schematics Lite

I've been using 3rd party software to generate pneumatic/hydraulic schematics; typically pretty simple and straight forward. Nothing fancy. It has been working okay for a while, but I stumbled upon reference to "PTC Creo Schematics Lite". Keeping my schematics together with my cad would be awesome, but I don't do enough to justify buying a full blown addon. At the end of the 5 page data sheet PDF for PTC Creo Schematics it claims there's a free "Lite" download. Yet after lots of searching I haven't found it anywhere.

Does anyone know if this still exists in "Lite" verstion?

If so, any ideas where I can find the download link?

Thanks!

According to this document, PTC Creo Schematics Lite is included with PTC Creo PCX.

I spoke with my reseller and he guided me to ptc.com "Support > Software Downloads > Order of Download Software Updates" where it then shows up for my reseller, but not for me.

I then spoke with a gentleman at PTC who wasn't really aware that Schematics Lite existed, and couldn't tell me where to find it.

I don't know. Maybe it's only a free download if you have certain extensions, though the documentation led me to believe it's a free download for anyone who wanted it.

I'll keep digging, but I'm not too hopeful.

It sounds like you need to purchase PCX which has the Lite version. Then if you want more feature you have to purchase them too.
