Inventor into .pdf

Came across an interesting question at work today. Is it possible to take an file in Inventor and EASILY change it to a .png file? We have the Acrobat Pro to create .pdf files from Word files.

Currently, I'm taking .pdf files of parts, using the selection tool to grab what I need, then pasting it into a new Photoshop file, then saving it as a .png to insert into the Word file to convert into the .pdf file for the shop floor.

Most of the planners are capable of learning new programs, but generally don't have the time required to put into the learning. Hence, we need to know if we can do the same thing between Inventor and the Word file in one extra step.

Two last notes on the issue:
1. Using the Print Screen function loses a great deal of the detail in the drawing.
2. Importing the images into the Word document takes up too much disk space. (I've saved things as .png that were .jpg and brought a file from 100Mb down to 1.5Mb.)

Thanks,
indieFan
