Summary

The Save Drawing As standard file selection dialog box is displayed. Enter a file name and type. Saving a drawing to any DXF format affects performance.

See Save Drawings to Previous Drawing File Formats for a description of the limitations that result from saving to an earlier version.

In the Save Drawing As dialog box, ToolsOptions displays the Saveas Options dialog box, which controls various DWG and DXF settings.

The file is saved with the specified file name. If the drawing is already named, the drawing is saved with the new file name. If you save the file as a drawing template, the Template Options dialog box is displayed, where you can provide a description for the template and set the units of measurement.

When FILEDIA is set to 0 (zero), SAVEAS displays command prompts.
