Information about Publishing in Windchill PDMLink 10.1

[EdRamsey]

Can anyone direct me to some information on how publishing works within Windchill PDMLink 10.1? We have recently upgraded from Intralink 3.4 and would liek to take advantage of some of the automatic features within Windchill.

Currently we export PDF's out of Creo and imbed them with .pvz, .sat and .igs files. These files are generally used to vendor informational purposes. I was wondering how much of that could be automated within Windchill?

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.

I do not know the procedue to do it, once you associate creo cad part to windchill part , pdf of drafting is automatically generated.

Some macro/code may be running which publishes drafting to pdf file and attaches.

Hello, Ed,

As a start, you may want to look at several of the topic collections in the Windchill Help Center.

For a general overview, you could begin here: http://www.ptc.com/cs/help/windchill_hc/wc101_hc/index.jspx?id=VisualWCWVSAbout&action=show

Administrative information about publishing begins at this topic: http://www.ptc.com/cs/help/windchill_hc/wc101_hc/index.jspx?id=VisualAdminIntro&action=show. If you prefer, this administration documentation is also available in PDF format: http://www.ptc.com/WCMS/files/138204/en/WindchillVisualizationServicesGuide_10-1_M040.pdf

I hope this is helpful; if you have any feedback regarding the documentation, please let me know.
