Applies To

  • Creo Parametric 4.0 to 12.4
  • Creo+

Description

  • Exporting drawing to pdf result in wrong representation of centerline (axis/ cutting lines)
  • How to change the pattern of axis while exporting drawing to PDF
  • Cutting line scale changes while exporting drawing to PDF
  • Phantom/center lines showing as solid lines after exporting to PDF
  • The centerline dash spacing is not appropriate after creating a drawing and exporting to PDF
  • Draw a line in the Creo 7.0.2.0 drawing and set the line type to PAHNTOMFONT_S_S; Draw the same line and the same type in the Creo 4.0 M080 drawing; the display of the line is different, and it will be more obvious when printed to PDF. We want to keep the display of Creo 4.0 M080.
  • Display of centerline in PDF exported with Creo 10 is not the same with Creo 5
  • When creating a PDF from an existing, modified drawing, the line quality is different.
