How to generate automatically pdf and DWG file from drw on Windchill 11?

I'd like to export automatically pdf and dwg files wihle publishing it on windchill.. For the moment I managed the pdf files export using "Presentation Export" tool. But not the dwg ones.

In addition the dwg file in zipped folder as showndwg.JPG

 

is there any way to manage these tow problems ?

THANK YOU

Yes, it is possible to automatically “export”/download any file generated by publishing.

 

I’ve written a few utilities to do this.

 

But without a description of your use case, 🤷‍♂️

Hi @NL_9194215 

You can use VWS After loader

Here is article where the save locally or to a network is described.

  • The optional function in this article to save the output viewable files out to a designated folder in a local or network hard disk contains ​File#renameTo java method that can not only rename, but also move between directories, at least on the same file system. It runs under only one operating system in one series of computers (one operating environment). If you need a more comprehensive solution (such as wanting to move the file between disks), look at Apache Commons FileUtils#moveFile
