Use Case: Publish dwg files

Is it possible to use the same Creo file publisher for dwg generated by Autocad with Windchill integration? I wouldn't want to install an Autocad on the Windchill server! Thank you

Hi Nino,

Give a brief description of the software you were using, the format type you desire, and the output file you need.

I use Windchill 12.0.2.4 and Creo 8.0.9.0.

In addition to 18 Creo licenses we have recently also integrated 2 AutoCad licenses on Windchill, what I would like to achieve is the conversion into files viewable with Navigator like those of Creo.

Example

I would not like to install a copy of AutoCad on the Windchill server to use as a Worker but use the already present copy of Creo!

Hi Nino,

First make it simple if we are using Creo mean, format is .asm, .prt, .drw.

 

for example I want dwg/dxf file that i want from .drw format mean we can use "Visualization Configuration" that'll convert automatically dwg/pdf save it Representations/Annotation. Right click and open in Creo View.

AutoCAD doesn't want any CAD Worker to publish it'll automatically publish. But if you want direct native AutoCAD file dwg/dxf and also you want edit and modify mean you need a AutoCAD Software.

 

Regards,

Aj
