export vector graphics out of Inventor by iLogic (or multiple by an add on)

Hello my friendes!

 

We have the following problem: We need exploded views incl. parts list for our assemblies.
But since we cannot cover all languages, the basic bill of material is exported to Word or Excel and edited there.
However, the exploded view (always on sheet 1) is to be exported to Word as a vector graphic.
Is there a way that you can export a vector graphic (wmf or preferably svg or something similar) directly via iLogic?
There can be multiple views in a drawing - so the whole sheet should be exported - to a given path.

It would be nice if in the same breath also the parts list could be exported as xlsx (is always on sheet 2) - into the same path with the same number as the drawing.

I would be glad about any idea or hint or maybe also about another - better way of working in this context. We have to create and export far more then 1000 such drawings.

 

Thanks in advance

 

kind regards
Tom

There is no standard/default translator to SVG or WMF file format. Perhaps you can find something on Autodesk AppStore (I found nothing 😐)

Or you can use some third party application (like Inkscape) to convert DXF to SVG

Another approach is to use PDF. Directly exported PDFs are vectorized. Later on you can merge multiple PDF files to one (if PDF is acceptable output).
