After you have organized
drawings into a sheet set, you can publish, transmit, and archive the sheet set
as a package.
-
Publish
a sheet set:
Use
the Publish feature to output the sheet set or a saved sheet set selection to a
plotter in either normal or reverse order. You can create single and
multiple-sheet DWF, DWFx, or PDF files from a sheet set or portion of a sheet
set.
-
Set
options for properties to include in a published DWF, DWFx pr PDF file:
You can decide what types
of information to reveal in your published DWF, DWFx, or PDF files. The types
of metadata that you can include are sheet and sheet set properties, block
properties and attributes, dynamic block properties and attributes, and
properties contained in custom objects. Metadata is only included when you
publish to DWF or DWFx; it is not available when plotting to DWF or DWFx.
-
Transmit
a sheet set: Package
and send a sheet set or a portion of a sheet set over the Internet.
-
Archive
a sheet set: Package
a sheet set or portion of a sheet set for storage. This is very similar to
packaging a transmittal set, except that you specify a folder for the archive,
and you do not transmit the package.
