Autodesk Inventor 2011 - iLogic Save Copy As

As a design engineer you might be required to save 2D drawings in a number of different formats to share with your supply chain. Using Autodesk Inventor and the iLogic tools embedded with Inventor we can automate this process to save multiple file formats such as PDF, JPG, TIFF, PNG etc in one go.

@MDS1312 Make sure you have the correct line of code, are you using -

ThisDoc.Documents.SaveAs(ThisD­oc.ChangeExtension(".jpg"), True)

If I change the file extension to DWG how can I force inventor to make an Autocad DWG and not an inventor DWG?

@josteurs Thats my next video, I'll video it and add the code to the blog next week.
