Publishing PDFs

We're currently publishing our drawing files as PDFs. One of the problems that was recently pointed out to me is when some symbols appear to shift dramatically during the publishing process.


I've narrowed down what I believe is the culprit. When created a PDF directly from Creo 2 (File > Save a Copy) we are given the Font option of either Use True Type Fonts (default) or Stroke All Fonts. When I leave it on the default, it appears the same as our published PDFs. When I change it to Stroke All Fonts, everything appears as it does when printing directly from Creo.


Is there a way to make the publisher use the Stroke All Fonts option when creating PDFs?


(Even better, is there a way to make this the default regardless of the source of the PDF? Creo and the publisher?)

How to modify model tab ?

Hello,

 

I would like to modify the display of the model tab. in CreoView -> Screenshot in attachment.

In fact I would like to add 2 parameters in the same line.

 

In order to do it, I need concerned parameter I want to add in this line. So, I have it!

I'm able to add one parameter. But I'm not able to add 2 parameters.

So, I modified "admin_prefs.xml" like that to have at least 1 active parameter.

 

"category name="Navigation">   

   <preference name="enable_preselection_highlighting" value="False"/>  <!-- Désactive la présélection -->

   <preference name="navigation_model" value="pro/engineer" locked="true"/>  <!-- Choix du type de navigation -->

   <preference name="alt_part_name_enable" value="True"/> <!-- Modification de l'arbre modèle: position + code article -->

   <preference name="AltProp2Group" value="__treeFilterPartName"/>

   <preference name="AltProp1Group" value="PROE Component Parameters"/>

   <preference name="AltProp2Name" value=""/>

   <preference name="AltProp1Name" value="Line Number"/>

   <preference name="AltText3" value=""/>

   <preference name="AltText2" value=" - "/>

   <preference name="AltText1" value=""/>

  </category>"

 

I don't know if it's possible to add more than 1 parameter in this line.

What do you think about ?

Hallo,

 

anyone knows how to measure the volume of a model in Creo View?? in the measurements summary I do not see the volume icon like in Creo Parametric, and it seems strange to me to not have such a fundamental tool...

Show centermarks of part in drawing of assembly

In Creo 3.0 how can I use "Show Model Annotations" or a similar command to show hole centermarks of a part in a drawing of a subasembly that part is in?

 

In Wildfire, the Show/Erase command didn't care what level the centermarks were on, it just showed them in the drawing.

Hi,

 

we use Creo View 3.0 with Creo 2.0. Windchill 10.1

 

If we Export files from Creo and open them in Creo View, it shows construction surfaces. But in Creo view they were hidden. (see attached picture - the left block should not be visible.)

 

anybody knows this problem?

it does not happen all the time.

Creo View 3.0 M030 with Internet Explorer (IE) 11

June 11, 2015, 9:50 am

Does anyone know how to force Creo View to use Document Mode 8 with Internet Explorer 11? We are running Windchill 10.1 M050, Creo Parametric 2.0 M140 and Creo View 3.0 M030. According to the PTC literature, all of these versions should be compatible with IE 11. We had to force Windchill to load in Document Mode 8 in order to get it to work. We are having an issue with Creo View, however, where it will not load CAD drawing or other images because its default IE document mode is 5. When using F12 to go to developer mode, we can manually change the document mode to 8 and then the image loads properly; however, as soon as a new Creo View session is loaded, the document mode defaults back to 5 and won't work again.

 

Any ideas how to force Creo View to always use document mode 8 with IE 11?

Where can I find any documentation of how to configure and use the Creo View Express as a plugin in a webbrowser like Firefox.

 

So far I'm doing a

 

 

<embed height="100%" width="100%" name="plugin" src="nvidia-demo.pvz" type="application/x-pvlite9-ed">

 

 

It is displayed correctly but I want to disable the toolbar, for example.

Furthermore I need access to the JavaScript API to be able to communicate with the plugin.

 

I'm using Creo View Express, Version Creo 2.0, Datecode F000 build 23.

 

Thanks a lot for your help.

So I've gone through and have set up my test system and the properties on it to republish out of date items.  So I changed a component that is used in an assembly.  The assembly doesn't start republishing. doesn't watermark the picture on the Details page and does not even register or show up when you Schedule a job to RepublishAllOutOfDateRepresentations.  I am on Windchill M030-CPS09 with the latest adapters which are M032.  Anyone have any ideas of how to get this to work?

Multiple-cut section views in drawings

January 31, 2014, 2:05 pm

I'm not entirely sure what to accurately call these, so I haven't had much luck in finding help creating such. At the moment, I'm working to take 2D AutoCAD drawings and turning them into 3D Creo Parametric 2.0 models as well as to recreate the drawings in Creo. In particular, I'm floundering on how to make more complex section views display in my drawings.

 

Attached is a simplified ref of the original AutoCAD views I'm trying to replicate. I can cut it like the model via an actual extrude but I can't figure out how to get a view looking flat at both cut faces at once. I've also tried to create a xsec with two datum planes in the model itself to then put on the drawing as a 3D cross section, but at that point the view doesn't display the two cutting planes as flat, instead displaying the angled side as coming out of the page and as such a portion of the outer surface is displayed and any attempt to dimension on the view is rendered skewed and worthless.

 

As an additional little question, where's the option to exclude a part from showing as cut in a cross section of an assembly drawing? With cutting a cylinder I'd like to leave the piston rod fully displayed but cut through all other components.

 

Any pointers into the right direction for what I'm overlooking would be much appreciated.

How to get annotations displayed in Creo View's 'Viewables'

October 21, 2015, 4:41 am

Good morning to everybody,

 

perhaps someone of you have a solution for this problem:

 

I have defined some Combined States in a Creo assembly.

Some 3D annotations are assigned to specific combined states so that every state displays only certain annotations. This works fine in Creo Parametric 2 and 3.

 

I want these Combined states to be available under the "Viewables" Tab in Creo View (Lite).

 

I am using the RCP editor to configure the output of pvs/pvz files.

And in Creo I set the config option "intf_out_pvs_recipe_file" to the rcp file.

 

My problem:

When I export a PVS/PVZ file from Creo 2 (M180) the combined states are available in CreoView 3 (M031) as "Viewables", BUT annotations are shown in "Master View" only. The Combined States/Viewables doesn't show any annotations.

 

When I use  Creo 3 Parametric (M060) and the same rcp file for export to PVZ/PVS) then the notes/annotations are shown in CreoView 3 (M031). Creo 3 seems to use another option for this type of export.

 

My question:

Does anybody know if there is a config/rcp option for Creo 2 Parametric that ensures annotations to be displayed in CreoView Viewables? Our productive version is Croe 2 (and will be 2016), so Creo 3 isn't an option today.

 

Thanks in advance.

Creo View printing black page

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm having problems with some of our stations (mostly laptops with onboard intel graphics) which are working with Creo View 2.0. The program is able to open and view models and drawings but when the user selects print the image prints as a solid black page. This is repeatable accross all printers and even print to PDF converters. Has anyone seen this before and is there a known fix?

 

Thanks

Is there a resource or anything that goes into detail about watermarks for Creo View files? Searching the Tech Support files really doesn't cover the basics. The lone PDF I found covered watermarks in two half-filled pages that provide no help at all. I'm just looking for something to help me stumble through creation and implementation less than I currently am. Trial-and-error just isn't cutting it.

Creo View - Saving PVZ Model Correctly

December 16, 2015, 9:03 am
$

Hi Guys,

 

I've searched forums, read user manuals,  and watched videos and I still can not understand how Creo View saves to a PVZ.  For instance, you can save a dozen annotations and click on File Menu > Save All and it appears to do nothing.  Coworkers and myself have lost a lot of annotation work when Creo View crashes.  We are saving often.  When I looked into this, the PVZ file's Date Modified time stamp in Windows 7 File Explorer shows that it was never saved.  It seems Creo View only saves to the PVZ file when the program is exited or closed.  On exit/close, it will display a saving progress indicator writing to the compressed file.  It is also evident it only saves when closing by the Date Modified time stamp in Windows 7 File Explorer.

 

Am I missing something or does Creo View in fact only save to the PVZ file when it's closed? Should I be using PVS files?  I never have because I didn't want to manage all the files it generates.

 

Also, when multiple models are merged or a model is inserted into another.  Save All AS PVZ will not save correctly.  The file will save only a fraction of the size of the merged files and it will be empty when it is opened again.  Save ALL COPY OF ALL AS PVZ saves the models correctly.


This is very confusing for new users to know how to save their work.  Anyone have any suggestions for better more reliable saves?

 

Mike
