Description

  • For Creo Elements/Pro 5.0:
    • From ribbon menu Publish, export in PDF format with option: "open file in Acrobat Reader" : PDF file name is not the same than the part or assembly detail one.
    • Exporting drawing in PDF format from menu Publish with option: “Open File in Acrobat Reader” opens the file automatically in Acrobat Reader with a temporary name other than the default or user given name. i.e. it shows any names like 1.pdf or 71.pdf…etc
