How does the Vectorworks Viewer compare on this level of functionality? Like the touch about you can orbit a 3D model but if you want to measure the geometry it will cost you $200!! Thanks for the info, in contridication of what others said reference "Also, the DWF is not just a 2D print it keeps the vector geometry, and the viewer can orbit through 3D models." Saved me a couple of time though, when "someone" managed to loose the dwg original -it bet starting from scratch! Mind you, is was pretty dumb downed - Text, for instance, was not text, by merely line strokes that "looked like" text. Now, as far as reading DWF files, there is (or was?) a untility that would import DWF into an AutoCAD session for manipulation/revision. Please do not get we wrong, I am not promoting one over the other, just expressing one point as to why "someone" ight be uding the DWF format over another. So, at least for me, it is/was more expediency rather the the pros and cons of with format was better.Īlso, when we first embarked on making our drawings "publicly" available to out client base, PDF did not, at that time, support features such as layers. But why, when DWF creation is built-in native to recent editions of AutoCAD. Therefore, if I want to 'share' my dwgs with non-AutoCAD users (and, sadly non-Mac users) I would need to purchase a 3rd party PDF creation software (from inexpensive to expensive). Unlike the Mac, PDF creation is not native. Just a thought here from an AutoCAD/PC user prespecetive.
