You can use the Create Unmanaged Copy command on the Manage menu to create an unmanaged copy of the latest published version of documents that are in a managed library. Solid Edge copies the most recent version of the documents and all linked documents to a specified location. The folder structure in the library will be duplicated under the selected folder. You must have at least read privileges to create unmanaged copies of folders and documents. You can create unmanaged copies of a single document, multiple documents, or an entire folder.
You can use the Create Unmanaged Copy dialog box allows to specify the information needed to create an unmanaged local copy of a document or folder. Select the document or folder you want to copy from a managed library and specify the local folder where you want the copy to reside. If you select a document with links to other documents, the linked documents are also copied. For example, if you select an assembly document, all of the assembly's associated parts and configuration files are also automatically copied. You have the option to include Draft documents. When you create an unmanaged copy of a document or folder, the original managed version of the document or folder remains in the managed library. You can set the Set All Documents To Read-Only option if you want the unmanaged copy of the document to be read-only.
