Exporting as PDF without axes

[agrzesik]

Hello, 

I'm relatively new to Inventor and am trying to export a simple drawing as a 2d pdf.  I have two requirement:

1.  Save the piece at 1:1 scale (it is only 70mm x 31mm)

2.  Save without the axes label that automatically shows up in the bottom left.  I cannot have anything on the page besides my drawing.

Thanks very much for any help!

Welcome to the group!

When you say drawing, do you mean a model?  Are you trying to get a 2D PDF of a view of your model? If so, I don't know of any way to create a 1:1 output from the model screen.  What method are you trying to use to create this PDF?

Thanks very much.

I am trying to get a 2D PDF of my model.  In fact, I am trying to get a .xps view of my 2d model.  I do mean that I am using a model and I have tried a few options to save as a PDF including export as pdf and safe as pdf.

You create a idw (drawing).. place views in it at 1:1 scale and print to PDF or xps printer at 1:1 scale..
