Convert Autocad, Mechanical Desktop and Inventor drawings to Dwf's at once.

[Anonymous]

We use Inventor 8, Mechanical Desktop DX and Autocad 2005 and need to convert all of the drawing files to a dwf format. Can this be done without having to open each drawing file individually? For example, can I tell the dwf converter to take all the drawings in a folder no matter if it is Inventor, Mech. Desktop or Autocad and just convert them to dwf and dump them into a different folder?

You can pretty mych apply your rule to the AutoCAD and Mechanical files, however Inventor files are slightly different and not published as such - they are save to the DWF format. You'll have to ask in the Inventor discussiongroup as to whether there are features in the program as such.

There are batch conversion tools that may do what you want. These are offered by companies like www.cadzation.com, www.infograph.com, or www.tailormade.com.
