It should go. After you create a drawing, you can save the PDF format. They send me drawings in this way. It's actually a picture. It can also be stored in the "World".

Should be able to Neil - not that I've learned to drive CAD. People who have done CAD models for me on a couple of parts have been able to send them to me as rotatable 3D PDF's as well as dimensioned drawings in 3rd angle projection. Which program are you using and I'll ask the question of my contacts in this area?

thanks guy's
richard, it's for this w165 nose cone i'm doing for a charity auction. i have the file saved as dxf to be cut out by the lazy (laser) cutters, but i thought why not just have it printed on to large scale paper and bend up some wire following the curves, for a wire frame buck. it was done through fusion 360 and saved as dxf. i tried to re-save it as pdf but for the life of me i can't remember why it wouldn't. i tried to search google but it just spits out a load of crap i really don't want to have to sift through. you the man, man

Did you use the export function and save as pdf?

You have to have the drawing open and then do your export. If the cad program you are using doesn't support that kind of feature use a free utility like Cute PDF that acts as a printer option but just creates a PDF from anything you print to it.
