NX7 pdf export problem
NX7 pdf export problem
(OP)
My OS is Win7x64.
I changed to Nx7 and one thing doesn't work. This is Pdf export. In NX6 this function was good.
If I apply the export, it says export completed, but I can't find the pdf file :)
If somebody had or has the same problem please help me.
Thanks

BTW, when you enter a file name, do you use the 'Browse...' option to define both the destination and the name of the .pdf file?

Or if you don't mind beachcombing, perform a windows file search for *.pdf (I'm guessing that will return hundreds of results!).
RE: NX7 pdf export problem
I will try 1.0.1.7.
I specify the output file location as I did when I used NX6.
But the pdf didn't create in the specified folder.
I installed Nx6 next to Nx7 and in Nx6 pdf export works perfectly.
So first I will try 1.0.1.7 and I will see what happens.
Thanks again.
RE: NX7 pdf export problem
Note that I could find only one environment variable that is critical for PDF to work and that is...
UGII_CGM2PDF=
...and by default, it should be set to...
<NX Folder>\nxplot\bin\pdf
Now this is set in the 'ugii_env_ug.dat' file and so if this file exists at...
<NX Folder>\UGII\
...and it has not been tinkered with, I don't know to say.
BTW, you can check that this variable has been set correctly by going to, while NX is running,...
Help -> NX Log File
...and then doing a search for the text string "pdf".

RE: NX7 pdf export problem
I don't know what was actually the real problem, but I am very happy that the reinstall solved it.
JohnRBaker, I have NX 7.0.0.9 as You have in your office.
For safety sake I updated to the newer ver. and everything works fine (pdf export too :))))
So this was my first time to write in this forum. I have to say this forum is brilliant. I never asked for help here before (just read the topics) and you (cowski, John R. Baker) were very helpful.
So thanks again and have a nice day.
