cant open .dwg files

carnahan.11 · ‎01-14-2013

Hello all,

I am using an educational version of inventor 2013 and I have been making part drawings and saving them as .dwg. I have tried to view these files using edrawings at school and it says there is a error in viewing the files. I have also sent the files to several friends that have various programs for viewing dwg files and none of them are able to open the files. I can open them perfectly fine from my computer using dwg truview. I have also tried saving them as different file types such as .dxf but these wont open either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Could try saving as *.dwfx - should be able to open with Internet Explorer if running Vista or Windows 7 OS.
