Hi there,

Does anyone know how to easily convert RsLogix5000 ACD files into PDF? I have a particularly large rung with a lot of instructions, which I want to fit on 1-page.

Thanks!

Hey Alex,

You can print ladder logic directly from RSLogix/Studio 5000 by going into “File”->“Print”, or pressing Ctrl+P. This way, you can print entire routines. To save as a pdf, you can install a 3rd party driver that will allow you to save as pdf instead of printing.

I’m not sure how the big rung will turn out as the print functions is “questionable” at best…

Good luck,
Vlad

is there any way we can print ladder logic diagram programmatically from RSLogix/Studio 5000 or from .ACD file in PDF?
My requirement is I need to extract the ladder logic diagram from .ACD file using C# or Python or any other technology
