TrueView
Yes..do not know if this is the right forum, but we have over 20,000 drawings on Lotus Domino Notes database in various formats…TIFF, PDF and ACAD (various versions). We use the A/Desk viers to view the DWG drawing files. All of the viewer softwares are PC mounted.. When U have a lot of PCs from which people (other than drafting staff) wich to view/plot the drawings > this becomes an I/services task of getting the viewer software loaded and maintained.
I would like to know if anyone has used CITRIX type programs to load their viewer software in one place and the is access via Lotus Notes to view the selected drawing record.
This seems the most practical way to allow everyone to view our drawings.
Any comments welcome
Thanks

James,
Most of our products do not supporet Citrix right now due to the ability for epople to run more than they have liceses for and is currently forbidden in the License Agreement.
Your suggestions make perfect sense and we might have projects around citrix support in the future.

Trueview & Trueconvert. I’ve tried using both, neither of which will read 2007 dwg files. We have a document person that prints & delivers our drawings. She was/is using the now defunct Voloview.

Gene,
The DWG TrueConvert does work for AutoCAD 2007 files if you have installed the latest. The DWG TrueView will be released any day now and reads and plots just like AutoCAD all DWG files from AutoCAD 2.0 to AutoCAD 2007.
Cheers,

Hello to all,
I am looking to find out how AutoCAD, as it was programmed, is intended to be used when plotting a lot of sheets at one time. Is it possible to do this without buying or downloading an additional add-on?
Muchas Gracias,
Joseph.

this coversion can do convert the autocad 2007 files to use in previously released autocad 2000 to 2006

Yes, you can convert AutoCAD 2007 DWG to open in earlier versions of AutoCAD like AutoCAD 2000 DWG format or R14.

I am a structural engineer, and I am still using AutoCad 2000. I have been using DWG True Convert 2007 for some time now. It usually works just fine. However, I just received a AutoCad 2007 plan drawing from the architect and his walls are not showing up. I opened the drawing in AutoCad 2007 and they show up. I then tried to save to AutoCad 2000 and it will only allow me to save it as a LT version and it gave me the following message:
“To view this drawing in AutoCad 2000 you need proxygraphics and object enablers.”
I am not sure as to what this is refering to. Can you please help?
Thank you

Michael,
I don’t know exactly what custom objects are in the DWG, or the versions of them but I would suggest downloading the free TrueView 2009 or installing the latest Object Enablers.
Best Regards,
Shaan
