[Framers] DWG in FrameMaker

Mon Dec 18 05:51:08 PST 2017

Stefan,

No, we don't use the dwg files; however, if I need a CAD file, I open it 
in AutoCAD and export it as a wmf file, which actually renders quite well 
in FM and imports easily into graphics programs.

Hi Framers,

a quick poll:

Are you using AutoCAD DWG files in your FrameMaker documents? I'm not 
talking about DXF files, but AutoCAD native AutoCAD DWG files. Or are you 
all using DXF files or PDF to reference drawings coming from AutoCAD?

It would be great, if a lot of you would reply with a quick "Yes, we're 
actively using DWG files in our documents" or "No, we don't use DWG files, 
but DXF/PDF/...."

I'm looking forward to a lot of replies J

Regards,
