"Im using Pro Engineer 2000i2"


2000i2 we believed was the most unstable release, atleast you should upgrade to 2001 datecode 2005030 or WF releases.


Using EFX 4.0 can automatically generate this drawing.

Thanks for your comments. We managed to fix the problem without having to upgrade.



For anyone else that has this problem in the future; our issue was the
scale of the drawing. Our largest dimension was 17m so we tried scaling
the entire model down and it worked a treat! Its tricky to do and we
had to re-scale all dimensions then regenerate which was time
consuming, but now the drawings are perfect.



Cheers

Hi guys,

I am pretty new to proE ... i made a drawing and i wanted to export in either Jpeg or Bmp format.. from proE.. The only option i had was to use the Screenshot button.. but that hinders the quality..

Can anyone tell me how i need to go about exporting a drawing to jpeg or bmp formats ?

thanks..

cheers,
makam
 
If you have Adobe Standard, or some other "pdf" maker, you can print from Proe and select Adobe, instead of the Windows default printer,to make the "pdf" file.
 
has anyone successfully export/plot an a1 size drawing which cotains imported jpeg image out to pdf format?
