Ah no worries, I found it. I was not aware I could do things from the command line...

For the record, one has to call the PRINT command from the command line.

I don't think you need to use command line.     What I do is...

1.  Click the printer icon on the task bar

2.  When the print dialog opens use the "Printer" selection list to select "Print to File (PDF)"

3.  Enter the output file name you want in the "Output File:" line

4.  Adjust other properties of the output as needed.    Note that by default,  the dialog only prints one sheet of the schematic so for multipage designs you'll probably want to hit the "All" check box in the Schematic Sheets section.

5.  Click the OK button

 

This works for me from Eagle 5.x thru 9.x.     I don't know if it works w/ the Fusion360 PCB design environment.

 

Cheers,

J-

Maybe they didn't have it before, I'm new to Fusion 360 Electronics.  But on the DOCUMENT tab (not on the DESIGN tab) there's a "Print" button in the OUTPUT action group.  You can select "Print to File (PDF)" in the Printer select box.  I was able to get a PDF generated pretty nicely from there.
