Create a PDF

im wondering how to publish to a PDF, so it pops up the PDF, before i have to save it.  in intralink, the pdf would show up on the screen, then do a file save as, and name it.  this one wants me to name it before i create it.  i dont really want to do that.  i would rather have the pdf show up, then look it over before i save it.

 

thanks

Try this mapkey "caf".  Created in Creo2.  Just add to your local config.pro

If you need this for WF, let me know.  there is a little difference.

I do a couple things before I create the pdf.  I first turn the datums off (d-), then I zoom-reset (zr) the window.

I also supplied my .dop file for Adobe. Place that in your work or "start in" directory.

If it doesn't work, use yours (adjust code below - "bad1pdf" with yours). Adjust it as you see fit.

mapkey d- @MAPKEY_NAMESwitch off all datum display options;\

mapkey(continued) @MAPKEY_LABEL>Datum display off;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `main_dlg_cur` \

mapkey(continued) `igToolbar_AncestorIGT_IGT_GRP_inh396938342.proe_win|.mcs29658718_mp|select_\
