AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating 3D PDF Files
Jun 7, 2013
I have searched this forum for a way to create 3D pdf files directly from Inventor or other "free" software but have not found anything that works very well. Today I found an answer, it is by using the Bentley Viewer. I had to "Save Copy As" my Inventor .iam file to "AutoCAD DWG Files.dwg". Then open it up inside the Bentley Viewer, go to the "Print pdf" button and select the "Print to 3D" button. It will even show some colors.

I am creating part files for one of our machines, and how to proceed with making a smooth transition on the bevel, like it is showing on the print from our customer.
What would be the best way to accomplish this?

I have just recently installed AutoCAD LT 2014 on Windows 7 (Running on an intel iMac through Bootcamp). Ever since then i am receiving notifications when performing a save.
AutoCAD is telling me it cannot perform the save and is creating a .tmp file in the same location on the server as the file should be.
this is causing major performance issues and happens almost every second time I attempt to perform a save. The issue is that we are getting multiple versions of the same file duplicating on the file server which is very quickly going to cause capacity issues considering most files are 2-4mb in size.

I was given a job where i need to create a surface from a gis file. have been messing with my civ 3d 2013 a little bit and have been able to get a surface comprised of a bunch of polylines to appear (not a true surface). I will need to create profiles so i need a true surface. I downloaded a compressed shape file from the county and need to know how to insert this into a drawing and build a surface using my own surface style.
The files i have to work with:
.dbf
.idx
.prj
.sbn
.sbx
"autocad shape source"
.shp
"autocad complied shape"

AutoCAD LT 2012...I have set up automatic file saving to save files every 10 minutes but files are not saved. I have deleted most old files from the "temp" folder thinking it may be full but the save function is still not working. Sometimes drawings do get saved but only at random intervals and definitely not every 10 minutes.

I would like to convert many xyz files, representing point clouds, to the isd files. I have found some dll's dealing with point clouds' objects (see bellow), however I could not find any supporting documentation.
Some sample code in VB.NET or direct me to some useful resources?
These dll's are, in my opinion, related to Point Clouds:
AcDbPointCloudDbxRes.dll
AcDbPointCloudRes.dll
AcMapPointCloudRes.dll
AcRevCloudRes.dll
AeccPointCloudEnu.dll
AeccUiMgrPointCloudEnu.dll
AeccUiPointCloudEnu.dll
Autodesk.Map.PointCloud.UI.dll
ManagedMapPointCloud.dll

I have noticed when I go to open a file there is also a recover file. Almost every file I have worked on in the last two weeks has a recover file. This causes problems if I can’t see the entire file name and accidentally start working with the recover file.
does AutoCAD 2012 automatically create recover files? I don't have unexpected shutdowns, I have never been asked to recover or create a recover file.

I have my automatic save turned on and set to 10 mins. I can visual see Civil automatically saving (as I have to wait a few seconds for the process) but it is not creating the temporary files.
I used to work fine, and I can see the last file that was created - a couple of weeks ago, but now it has just decided to stop creating these temporary files.It really makes this option useless if there is no temp file to get my lost information from when I crash.

I am having a problem using 2014 civil 3D. When I import las files and create a point cloud, and go on to make a surface from those points, it is limiting the "number of points added" to 340134. I am using the lidar las files which each tile or file has an average of 12 million points, and I have tried to create a surface using one file, and up to 28 tiles (where there should be 340 million points). Regardless, one of the files contains 12 million points and I do have the "point density" set to 100, and the "real time density" set to 100. Why will it only use 340,134 points? I have tried all options from "point cloud extents" to "window" and same result. All the points from the cloud are there and displaying fine, it just seems civil 3d is limiting the number of points used for surface.

I am currently creating templates for my drawings in order to standardise their use which includes the creation of templates, multileader styles, text styles etc... and placing them in custom tool palettes. I am also looking to add standard blocks such as fasteners and steel sections to my tool palettes however this has thrown a bit of a curveball. Basically I want all the blocks that I place in the tool palettes to move with the .dwt file I have created. At the moment it would appear that the source of the block is within the filing structure of the computer as apposed to just the template file it is placed in. Is there anyway to resolve this, or have the blocks so that they are stored within the template so that if the template is moved onto say a stand alone laptop elsewhere the blocks that appear in the tool palettes would go with the dwt file?

I have some data in the form of
point# | X | Y | Desc_1 | Desc_2 | Desc_3 |....... ect
I would like to make an excel table that i can create multiple points from and make that table dynamic, ie if i edit the table the points will change.I would be labeling the points according to the different desc_# in multiple drawings
Is there any way to do this? I have messed with creating a user defined property classification and creating a new point file format, but i want that point file I imported to be dynamic, and if I change values the values will change in all my drawings.

working with acad 2012 and not having good luck with links and functionality with excel. tried the links manager,pasting excel/entities. trying to insert separate files in model space in essence creating multiple cut lists for the drawing. Is there a tutorial that goes in depth with this? just froze one file at work, lucked out and opened at home. Each cut list is an individual worksheet, which may be the problem.

I just installed a fresh CS5, we are using some scripting that's installed on 5 other CS5 machines and this never happened before - when files are being saved (using 'save as', overwriting the original) this particular setup is saving xml files too!? See below

I'm recently using inventor a lot. But now IM try to make a .IDW template with my own line styles and thickness and stuff. This is what I do:
I open an exciting IDW file. I go to manage and click style editor. Then I create a new style. Called test style. I make sure I activate my new style and I go to layers, where I change the line weight from 0.51mm to 0.25 mm (example)
I save my change and close style editor... After that I save my copy as template (called test 6-1) and close the drawing. I open inventor and create a new file. Select the template I created. I get this style conflict.... I don't fully understand this error... How can I fix this problem?
When my new template opens, I check the line weight by the style editor but the weight detente change... Its still 0.51 mm.

Is there anything wrong with creating a new template this way:
1. Create a new model for a new client.
2. Create new drawing based on the standard template.
3. Bring in model views and create new title block, notes, symbols, etc. specific to new client.
4. Save drawing as a client specific template in my template directory.
5. Open new client template and erase all drawing views but leave notes, symbols, title block, etc.
6. Save.
The question is, doing it this way, will it cause problems? Will the drawing views somehow still be linked to the template? Should I erase the drawing views BEFORE saving as a template? Is there a better way ti create a template?

I'm having the constant problem, with IV crashing when trying to export an UK/EU A0 sheet. If I drop down one sheet size to A1 the export to PDF works with out a problem.
I've got the latest SP and fixes installed, so I don't know if it is IV or Adobe XI Pro at fault. Plenty of memory, paging file set to min of 8192 Max of 32768 so there plenty of space, 8MB Ram. Windows 7
What I've tried is save the file as a different name, file is NOT compressed on the HD, the HD is not faulty I've ran several test & checks, the folder & file are not corrupted, no viruses reported after deep scan, so now I'm stuck here wondering why IV will not export an A0 sheet to PDF.

I have to design a new part based on joining two of an already made ones. I thought it would be as easy as a "union" command in AutoCAD... but couldn't find anything that resembles that, and I really need them to be a joint part, since I will be printing them in a 3D printing machine. how I can do that in Autodesk inventor?

I am deep into my first Inventor project. I am approaching the point where I would like to make a comprehensive set of drawings with bills of material etc. I have discovered that all this time I have actually been working in one big assembly file. My main project file is NOT a project file (so I have discovered). It is a *.iam file.
So, my question is, should I create a project file, and then add my main assembly to it? Should one normally create a new Project file for each new job? What does one gain by doing this versus simply using the *.iam file?

I can't find an easy, out-of-the-box way to create a 1920x1080 file from my clips. My clips are shot in HD (1080p) and I can output in 1080 via .mp4, but not .avi. I've been producing in .mp4 and converting through an external tool to .avi, but quality is lost a bit.
I tried using "custom" and user-defined resolution, but the file size was enormous and didn't playback correctly in WMP. When I select the compression types, it locks out user-defined resolutions.
