Batch PDF 1

[MotoAce51]

I searched and found some old threads that reference batch PDF's. None of the old links seem to work. I found a program that works well (Batch Print SW 2012) to convert all my drawings to PDF for emailing, but I am only able to use a trial for 30 days. Before I buy a license, is there any free options out there to convert my SW drawings to PDF? Whenever I do it in windows, one drawing will save as a PDF and the rest decide they should print out instead. This can be annoying if you print 200 docs by accident.

Do you use Enterprise PDM? There are ways to do this in PDM.

Have you checked into SW Task Scheduler (Start/SolidWorks/SolidWorks Tools/SW Task Scheduler) ?

I tried the task scheduler and had no luck. It said it completed the task, but the files were nowhere to be found.

I have always been happy with the DocExport macro from Lenny's site:
