1. Automatically creates an STL file from the active part or assembly after saving.

2. Sets the output folder for STL files. When empty, STL is created in the STL subfolder in the same location as the source part or assembly. More can be found in Saving files using relative paths.

3. Sets the file format for the exported STL file. The description can be found in the Autodesk Inventor documentation.

4. Sets the resolution and other parameters of the STL file. The description can be found in the Autodesk Inventor documentation.

For larger files, the publishing process may take a long time to complete. In such cases, it is not recommended to use automatic on-save publishing. To speed up your workflows, disable the on-save publishing in settings and use manual publishing instead.
