    DWF File Format

    Short Name DWF
    Long Name Design Web Format
    Typical File Extensions .dwf .dwfx
    Contains CAD Publishing
    DWF is a file format devised by Autodesk (developers of AutoCAD), for securely distributing and communicating design data. Once received, the data be viewed, reviewed, and printed.
    • The biggest advantage of the DWF format for this purpose, is that the recipient does not need to have (or know how to use) the AutoCAD software to review the design. Additionally, the DWF file is freed from the links and dependencies found in a typical CAD drawing or drawings - a single DWF file can even be used to publish data from multiple AutoCAD drawings.

    • Anothe advantage of the DWF format is that the sender can limit what information is distributed to the recipient. For example, the sender may elect to include some parts of the design data, but not include other design data.

    • DWF files are highly compressed, which makes them easy to store or transmit.
