Hi all,
I am trying to create some high quality isometric pictorials with all the dimensions shown. Everything is looking pretty good so far but when I save the part as a JPG, the lineweight of the edges and the dimensions is too light. Is there a setting I can change to make these lines thicker? The parts need to be displayed in Shaded with edges mode and I just recently upgraded to Creo 3.0.
Two items -
One - try something besides JPEG. JPEG was developed for compression of continuous tone images, not bitmaps with sharp transitions. You will do better if you can save as PNG or TIFF.
Two - Photoshop or GIMP is your friend. You can select the edges in the image editor and then use the 'stroke' command to draw as wide a line as you like. Hopefully you have edges that are selectable by color, which makes the process easier, though I have found I can capture an HLR image and use that as an overlay to thicken the edge lines.
