3 sheet IDW to 3 separate pdf's

[mslosar]

Is there a way to do this in Inventor?

We need to be able to print each sheet to it's own PDF (preferably automatically naming the pdf in the process). I can't seem to find a way to do it in Inventor itself or the Task Scheduler. I imagine it's something that needs to be present in the PDF driver, but CutePDF and Acrobat Printer don't seem to have that option. Is there one that does?

Surprisingly, AutoCAD and Revit BOTH have this ability. Inventor seems to be the only Autodesk packaging lacking the ability.

Hi mslosar,

You can find an iLogic rule to do this at this link. Look at the second variation:

Attached is an example file that uses this rule and iis set up to write out a PDF for each sheet each time you save the file.

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

I just want to say you're my new favorite person! 🙂

Now, if I could just IT to get back to me about installing Ilogic....

Does this happen to work with the task scheduler or in a batch format? Or is it a per file thing only?
