PAC4SWX Export documents options

PAC4SWX is a tool to batch convert SolidWorks models. With PAC4SWX you can choose multiple models from your filesystem and convert all files in one step.

Set export documents options

You can set various options PAC4SWX will use for exporting each document in the PAC list with SolidWorks. 

The settings can be saved on a user-bases in the main dialog. If you want to store the settings in a file or read them from a file you may do so from the main dialog.

The export documents option dialog is separated in two areas:

• Export as
  You can choose the target format for export in the dropdown list. The common standard export formats from SolidWorks (PDF and JPEG) can be choosen. PAC4SWX uses the exportoptions from SolidWorks, please change them directly in SolidWorks.
  Note that for the PDF export SolidWorks 2004 or above has to be installed; however once installed it is possible to "Save as PDF" from previous version if the add-in is loaded.
• Choose directory for exported files
  If you set the option save in directory of document all exported files are saved to the directory, where the drawing is stored. If you want to gather all exported files in one directory uncheck this option and enter a directory path in the textbox or use the button to browse the directory (recommended).

Any existing files in the target directory with the same name will be overwritten without warning.

All export parameters (if applicable) from SolidWorks will be used. Please change these parameters in SolidWorks if necessary.
