Export DWF and DWFx Files

You can easily assemble a collection of drawings and export them to the DWF or DWFx file formats.

Sets of drawings are the primary deliverable for most design groups. Creating a drawing set to distribute for review can be complicated and time consuming. Electronic drawing sets are saved as DWF or DWFx files. You can view or plot DWF and DWFx files using Autodesk Design Review.

To output a single drawing, use the Plot dialog box.
