Hello,

To copy the drawing, select FILE, SAVE A COPY, change the Type to TIFF , change the drawing name if required and change the directory, if required. You can then insert this into WORD, EXCEL. For AUTOCAD, I think you will need to change type to DXF. I'm not sure as we don't use AUTOCAD.

As for the library, I've no idea as I am MEchanical.



Hope this helps.

Yes, you can.
There are so many ways it is incredible.
Everything grom a screen dump to exporting a DXF.
I generally export them as PDF files so any one can READ them. I must point out that once you do this the drawing will become a "DUMB" drawing an you will loose all the parametric associativity that makes this program great!

The termanology you are looking for is called a symbol in Pro/E. I am sure there are elecrical templates for the system somplace, I would do a google search for {"Pro/E" "symbol library" electrical). That shoud yeild something of use. You create a drawing (or part) and place the line symbol on your print.

Hope that helps. I can see that the by the verry nature of your question that you have a lot to learn. I hope that time is fun and enjoyable!
