Export to DWF

I don't want my customers to measure the dimensions out of the 3D model I export as DWF. 

If I uncheck the box for "Enable measure", then the file fails to upload on online Autodesk Viewer.

 

Do anyone have solution for exporting the 3D model to DWF without allowing the user to measure the dimensions.

I am not at my Inventor machine to test - but did you try dwfx as well (and this should not require a viewer - only Windows OS)?

I am just exporting the 3D model as DWFX and then uploading it to the Autodesk viewer (online/cloud based) to generate the link which I can copy and send to my clients.

If I uncheck the options (as circled in the attached snap) and generate the DWFX file, then it will fail to upload on the Autodesk viewer giving me the below error.

If I recheck the boxes and publish the DWFX and upload it to Autodesk viewer then it works. But then, the measuring tool is enabled which allows the end-user to measure everything from the 3D model, which I don't want to avoid compromising the design work.

Hi! A few other options to try. Export to JT or OBJ. Then open it on Autodesk Viewer. Is the geometry still measurable?

Many thanks!

The following thing worked for me. Just uncheck the boxes as shown below in the online Autodesk viewer while sharing the link .
