Generating Additional File Formats for Inventor with Windchill
When you use the Creo View Adapter for Inventor with Windchill for server-controlled publishing, you can generate additional file formats. Configure the file formats for publishing by defining one or more additional file types in the Publish Rules XML file in Windchill Visualization Services (WVS). If a single <file> element produces a multifile output, the output files are placed in a single ZIP archive. For more information about generating and configuring additional file format outputs as part of publishing, see the topic Using Conditions in Publish Rules in the Windchill help center.
The output file types supported in the Publish Rules <additional-files> <file> elements section for the Creo View Adapter for Inventor follow:
