How to create an assembly drawing with pcb editor?

HotrodJEB

Is there a creative way to export(or save as pdf) an assembly drawing? Perhaps save the silkscreen with the board outline?

    You can just accept the mirror on the artwork film (the fabricator should recognise this) or you can create an assembly view. Setup the display to show what you need then use Display - Flip Design (to show it mirrored, then use Manufacture - Drafting - Create Detail, set a class/subclass and scale in the options pane (so a layer you want the info to be on) then draw a window around your design, a window is then attached to your mouse to place on the canvas somewhere. Setup a new artwork film of this view and include it in the PDF export.
