Quick Reference

You can publish an electronic drawing set as a DWF, DWFx, or PDF file.

You can assemble drawing sheets into a customized electronic drawing set. An electronic drawing set is the digital equivalent of a set of plotted drawings. This enables you to share your work with customers, suppliers, or people within your own company who may need the drawings for review or for their records.

An electronic drawing set can be saved as

• A single, multi-sheet DWF, DWFx, or PDF file
• Multiple, single-sheet DWF or DWFx, or PDF files

You can also send the published electronic drawing set as an e-mail attachment, share it using a project collaboration site such as Autodesk Buzzsaw, or post it to a website. Using Autodesk Design Review, you can view or plot only the layouts you need.

You can use the default plotter driver as installed, or you can modify configuration settings such as color depth, display resolution, file compression, font handling, and other options. Once you modify the original plotter configuration file, all future plotting and publishing of DWF, DWFx, or PDF files will be affected.
