SCOPE Projects Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I can't for the life of me figure out to export my drawing into a PDF...I know I've done this before but I can't the find a PDF file option anywhere under the export tab. Please help! AV Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 This is one of those questions where it makes a big difference what version you are using and what OS. If your VW is relatively recent: Mac: File > Export > Export PDF or File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF PC: File > Export > Export PDF hth mk Quote Link to comment
SCOPE Projects Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 I'm using Vectorwors 2011 on a PC. My problem is that I don't see an option for exporting PDF... The options are as follows: Export dxf/dwg " " database " " epsf " " image file " " metafile " " vectorscript " " worksheet There are also a bunch of 3d only options. I'm so confused because I have done it before but I simply can't find the option for it anymore? Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Perhaps you are using a custom workspace which does not contain the Export PDF command?? Try switching to a standard workspace and see if it's there... Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Are you using Fundamentals? Different workspaces have different export options. I thought that 2011 had a pdf export built in for PCs... My Mac version has PDF export in Fundamentals. (Macs have the option of using the VW pdf exporter or the native OS pdf tool.) If you have other workspaces, try switching to another workspace and see if it comes back. mk Quote Link to comment
SCOPE Projects Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was working in Fundamentals and that seemed to be the problem. As soon as I switched it to Landmark the export PDF option was available. Thanks for your help! AV Quote Link to comment
