Thanks for all the helpful feedback.
Basically, WF 3.0 Pro/E integrated PDF's are not supported on the 64 bit
version of Pro/E as they are on the 32 bit version. But it is on WF4.0.
It is disappointing because we are a long, long way from upgrading to
WF4.0 (which is still beta). It would be nice if a future WF3.0 build
added this feature. While we wait, there are many other options for
making PDF's (ghostscript, third party printer drivers (many free) and
Acrobat).
Several comments were made that this feature was removed because of
Adobe. However, somehow, Solidworks2006 x64 made it work.
Just one more piece of ammo for the solidworks salesman: "To create a
PDF, just press "File-Save As. And this works across all our
platforms."
The Pro/E salesman will respond. "We have the same thing as long as
your not running x64 or you're running our "beta" software. And on our
released x64 platform just go through any number of convoluted steps."
Thanks again
Chris
