PDMW API Saving a PDF
PDMW API Saving a PDF
(OP)
Hello,
I need help with creating a DLL or an EXE that will run when a drawing is checked into the PDMW vault that creates a PDF of the drawing and checks it in with a reference to the original drawing. In discussion boards I have seen reference to this being done but no specifics on how. I am in the novice stages of API programming so the more help the better (i.e code examples).
We have PDMW advanced server.
Thanks,
Chris

RE: PDMW API Saving a PDF
The key to writing a PDF in this program is that the PDF generator (like most PDF generators) acts like a printer. If you can write a program that creates a print on cue, you can adapt it to create a PDF.

I was considering making a quick-and-dirty SW PDF plotter until SW04. :/
