Open drw file-save as copy-from pull down menu -choose pdf.Make a separate working directory-or folder to save pdf.Before saving pdf choose your working directory, then you can keep all pdf copies separate

Hello Anand, what pro/e version are you using? Wf3.0 - 64 Bits does not allow to create pdf. WF 3.0 32 Bits, should do it easily, it has and pdf export module embedded as default.

We use PDF995, it installs as a printer and makes PDF's very nicely. I think you can buy it from the internet. Very cheap ($9.95) and works well.
