Specifies additional
output settings for DWF files.
DWF Format
Specifies the compression
format for DWF files.
- Compressed Binary (Recommended)
-
Plots the DWF file in
a compressed, binary format; compression does not cause data loss. This
is the recommended file format for most DWF files.
- Zipped ASCII encoded 2D stream (Advanced)
-
Plots the DWF file in
zipped ASCII Encoded 2D Stream (plain text) format. You can use
WinZip to unzip the files.
Background Color Shown
in Viewer
Controls the background
color that is applied to DWF files.
NoteDWF files intended
for plotting should be configured with a white background color.
If the AutoCAD background color is set to black, color 7 objects will
be plotted as white. For all other background colors, color 7 objects
will be plotted as black.
Include Layer Information
Specifies the inclusion
of layer information in plotted DWF files. If this option is selected,
any layers that are turned on and thawed when the plot is created
are available for manipulation in the plotted DWF file. If this
option is cleared, no layer information is available when the DWF
is viewed in an external viewer or browser.
In some cases, such as
in drawings that include nested xrefs, turning this option off may
significantly improve performance.
Show Paper Boundaries
Specifies the inclusion
of a paper boundary in plotted DWF files similar to what is displayed
with drawings in a layout tab.
NoteFor DWF6 ePlot, the
Show Paper Boundaries option is checked by default and is unavailable
for editing.
Save Preview In DWF
Specifies that a preview
of the DWF file will be saved in the DWF file.
NoteA small thumbnail
of the DWF file is always saved. You should only use the Save Preview
in DWF setting if the recipient will use Buzzsaw.com to
access the preview.
