Back to the viewer topic.
(OP)
This has been beat to death, and I searched yet again without success.
Right now, we have an extra seat of Pro-E for purchasing. All they do is open drawings and hit print, or export a pdf or dwg file to send to our machine shop or a supplier.
Our engineering manager is wanting to do away with that license.
I've tried a few different viewers, but they all had issues.
with Productview express I can view drawings, but can't figure out how to print a drawing with a white background and to scale.
with EDrawings, us designers have to take an extra step to publish the drawings, which adds more files to our server, and is just something that will be forgotten.
Autoview seems the most promising, but I'm having text, some lines and the titleblocks and borders dissappear, and their customer service speaks english as a second language. That wouldn't be so bad if they actually returned my calls.
I was trying to look at the Hoops? software, but the website locks up when I try to access it.
Anyone have any new programs they're using?

This way you are assured the vendor is getting the exact drawing that got put into the data manager. Having others who dont necessarily know Pro/E pull up drawing files is a recipe for disaster.
