Hi,
There is a question about saving files.
When I save a dwg file, it will create another PDF file,
how do I close this function?
I don't want to create a PDF file.
Thanks

Hi,
You're running the same version as me
I can't find any option to turn on/off creating a pdf when saving.
My only thought was that your install had been customised to include creating a pdf when using tha save command.
What command are you using to save?
Is it from a toolbar or Ribbon?
Also can you try typing 'save' on the command line and then follow prompts, does that also create a pdf?

Hi Steve,
I find the option that creating pdf file myself,
it is in options->Print and Publish->Auto Publish
I might check the automatic publish checkbox by accident.
I disabled the checkbox then it would not save any pdf files.
Thanks your reply

Thanks for sharing the solution! I had a similar issue in the past, and I appreciate the detailed steps. Just to clarify, does anyone know if this auto-publish feature is available in other versions as well? Iām curious if it might affect users who are still on older versions.
