    PDMWorks Dwg Files

    When using PDMWorks Advanced Server is it possible to export dwg files as pdf using triggers in the same way as you can export Solidworks Drawing files. Can it be set so that when you update the revision the file is automatically created. Thanks bmc1974

    If I stop paying my subscription fees for a period of two or three years do I have to pay the reinstallation fee plus an additional 1 years subscription fee or do I have to pay the subscription fee for each release that I have missed. Thank for the help.
