Open DWG 2018 File on Mac Running AutoCAD 2017

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Can someone please let me know how to open / manipulate / save a 2018 DWG on a Mac running AutoCAD 2017 (without buying a Windows box)?

I do not beleive that TrueView is compatible with OS X?

Thanks,

This method does not work...

You need to be using AutoCAD for MAC versions 2018 or 2019, ore try a free trial of one of them for a temp solution, or find a converter that works on a MAC from a 3rd party source, this old tip using AutoCADMobile is dead now.

Hello there... I have opened my file in web.autocad and tried to save it in an older version, but there is not such option given. The web application just saves the file in its initial version. Can u pls help me?

Hi @Anonymous,

The method with AutoCAD WEB is dead too.
To save DWG in earlier format you can:
- do it with AutoCAD 2021 for Mac trial
- ask someone who has AutoCAD on PC
