Workflow: Publish Multiple Drawing Files to DWF or DWFx Files

You can publish a set of drawing files to a single, multi page DWF or DWFx file or multiple, single sheet DWF or DWFx files.

Before you publish to DWF or DWFx, prepare the drawings by specifying the settings that determine the appearance of the output, and save the settings to a named page setup. Thereafter, add the drawing files and layouts you want to publish to a list of drawing sheets. Finally, specify the DWF and DWFx options and publish the list of drawing sheets.
