AutoCAD 2008 - Automatic DWF Publish?
Beth beat me to press, to blog?, with an AutoCAD 2008 feature that caught my eye. No point repeating her fine work here so click thru for more detail on Automatic DWF Publish.
Automatic DWF Publish in AutoCAD 2008 - Beth's CAD Blog
I always like to look at the Options dialog box to see what jumps out at me as different from previous releases. While doing so recently, I ran across this at the bottom of the Plot and Publish tab…
I can add I’ve been experimenting and found the “publish on save” option a little intrusive as it does take some time for the DWF publish to complete on complex files. There is an option to “Publish on Close” or “Prompt on Close” which better suits my work-flow. You can save without “Publish lag” and, when set to prompt, have the choice to accept/reject publish when the file is closed.
For AutoCAD Architecture users I’ve still to experiment how Auto DWF publish and ACA projects work together, something for a future post.
