Could you please clarify what the PDF would be used for so I can provide the right information?
eg. I want to:
I want to be able to:
Ok, so for a mechanical assembly, you would ideally need a step file or equivalent to import into your mechanicals and for the electrical side, you would need an assembly drawing.
Let me know if this makes sense. If so, I'll try see how to generate these files for the design.

- check board size and location of the pins. This is actually what caused me to file this issue, since I was designing a 3D printed structure that will contain one.
- look up major parts and names of pins.

A .step file is fine, but that also requires an additional tool. So a .pdf with various views is IMO the most useful for a quick look at sizes etc.

Added step file, will add PDF with views as time permits.
Just like a .pdf is available for the schematic, it'd be nice to have it available too for the PCB for quick reference.
I can install KiCAD on my little travel laptop, of course, but it's just a bit of overkill.
Thanks! Tom
