publishing to DWF and NOT buzzsaw

I just hope I am just seeing the option, but is there anyway to publish to DWF and not to buzzsaw?

I can <print> to pdf, but I rather use DWF.

John.

You could grab the Autodesk DWF Writer (Windows system printer driver) and use that with the Print dialog.

unfortunatly all it does is make 0 kb files.

Personally I think it kind of silly, that I have to download a program to print/publish in dwf when everything else that I have from autocad does it natively.

and the 32-bit program of course does not install since I have a 64 bit machine.

Hi. Just a suggestion. You can simply export to DWF using the export option in the application menu. You will end up with one DWF file for the entire project.

A much better suggestion than mine. 🙂

Ok that worked. Still odd that you cannot publish to dwf. But a solution!

No no yours was a great suggestion, and It should have worked! There may be underlining problems to why it didn't.

You can publish to buzzsaw with any settings. but without login/password. and press publish. When you'll see window to enter login/password - do not close it. Your *.dwfx file will be there: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp\ Copy your *.dwfx to any place and then just close window for login/password
