Printing/Exporting to PDF
« on: January 23, 2012, 11:20:00 am »
Hi People,

I am playing with a data model and am (almost) certain that I have been able to print the diagram to PDF (possibly from the File menu).  The item seems to be in the menu only sometimes. (Once just before a meeting, which was handy.)

It's version 8.0.864.  Is there some special incantation that will make the Print to PDF item appear on the menu?

Or am I entirely delusional?


Cheers,
Damian

I think the incantation is "upgrade to release 9.0, build 904", but you can add your favourite flourish of the wand if you like. That build is when that option was introduced. However, the option is not documented (yet) - next release, I hope.

It just copies the diagram as a single image into a PDF file in a location of your choosing. You might have to manipulate the image and/or print properties in the PDF file to get it to print out within the page margins.
Best Regards, Roy
