    what's the best way to clean a dwg, received from someone else and want to incorporated with your drawings? I tried Purge & Audit but it doesn't seem to clean all of it.

     

    thanks

    CLEAN means what to you exactly? What you've already done fits under "clean" for many users.

    one of the more straightforward ways would be to select the objects you want to keep, and wblock the out to a new file.  Run AUDIT when you open the new file, and party on from there.
