guys/gals, I was just wondering if there was any way that multiple DWF files
could be merged into one? I have two files, both with information that I need
at the same time and would like to maybe merge them together into one file, or
copy a sheet from one (with markups) to the other. As I cannot have them both
open at the same time, I was hoping I could do this somehow. Any ideas? I
guess I should've created them as a multi-sheet DWF in the first place
(they're just published from AutoCAD), but now I've gotten this far with
markups so I was hoping to not have to start over... Thanks for any ideas
here! Scott
Thank you for your question.
There are two ways to merge multiple files into one:
1. Open one DWF file, then drag and drop another DWF file into the Thumbnails palette of the opening file. Save it.
OR
2. In the file folder, select the multiple DWF files, then right-click on a selected DWF file, select Merge command. Save the merged file.
Please let me know if I can be any of further help.

Gents,
I submit many packages to teams in the field, I tend to get back 5 - 8 sets of red lines from various people with the same revision of drawings, some pages have been left out in the rain, some are missing pages or out of order. I would like Design review to merge the files but when merging I would not like to have the DWF with duplicates of each page. How I am looking for it to work is if I got 5 DWF's back from 5 different people all on the same drawing package I would like to merge the file and their comments would overlay eachother on one instance of the page. I would hope to be able to add a profile to the merge and name the person it came from and possibly hide the persons comments etc. I dont imagine this is something that is already possible from the conversation here, and trying the methods supplied in the help that was directed. If so, could you advise how to do this, if not is this something that could be thought about futher as a future feature?
- Thank You.
Thats unfortunate, it is so close to a great colaboration tool with a few minor changes that would be put in the face of non users by the requirement of engineering departments to use for redlines. My job strictly revolves around control systems engineering, I understand this is a small segment of what ACAD does but anyways.
Hi @pendean,
Is the following version is the latest one or the old one?

Using Windows 7 64-bit, the “Merge” functionality isn’t available while it was there in legacy 32-bit windows!
Not sure if ADR 2018 supports this functionality in Windows 10 .
Regarding the file format, Having Bluebeam Revu, I’m able to combine DWF files only _But in a PDF file 😞
Simplest way, is to open the drawing you want the drawings merged in.
Then drag the drawings from explorer to the DWF window. Now all of the drawings are merged into one.
