Hello Vectorworks Think Tank, We are working with an international design team that has built an entire show floor with sketch-up models. I'm doing what i can to reduce file size but its still well over 1 GB. any advice on the best ways to reduce this is very helpful. The file size is one thing, but since everything is 3D symbols or models the PDF file is well over 200 MB which is pretty much unusable so any tips or tricks to lowering that is helpful. Thank you very much!

So I went to export the design layers & sheet layers (to dwg) from a .vwx, and selected to export layers as separate files. My vwx file is 445Mb, and the file has no references. I'm running vw2018 landmark on win 64. I did the design and sheet export as separate processes as have had problems with this before. Design space export was pretty much what I expected, one .dwg file per layer, some .pat & .ctb files, and a stack of bitmaps, all .png which is kind of annoying, but overall pretty much what I expected and about 250Mb. Exporting the sheets ... I killed process after half an hour as it had got 40% through and filled a folder with 7.6Gb of of mostly.png files {oi seemed to be working thru the sheets as it had created eight .dwg's}. All images are duplicated multiple times. Most bizzarely my .wvx file grew to 660Mb, and stayed that size after save. I haven't been able to find out what the extra nearly 200Mb is and fortunately I had a backup. I suppose I'm writing this as wa rning to others of what looks like a serious bug. -
HELP: Multiple Floors in 3D with reduced File Size How can we plan mutiple floors (at least 8-11 Floors) within one drawing, including all interior design aspects (Furniture, Accessories, Lighting, Surfaces, etc.), and keep the size of the file/drawing reasonable. The drawing size is a normally a problem after 3 floors. -
Hi All, I have a VWX file that is north of one gig in size, mainly due to imported bitmaps of hand drafted scans. Does anyone know of a way that I can reduce the DPI / resolution / file size of these images in order to improve my file's responsiveness? Thanks, Nick

Where we have to markup photos as part of a presentation, we import them into vwx as a jpeg / png as relevant, place them on the sheet layer and red line, markup annotate them etc. The issue is when we come to PDF them, the file size is often HUGE, the most recent one with 4 c. 2mb jpegs taken from an iphone6 became a 90mb PDF when published. My current workflow is to then import these into Adobe acrobat and compress them, making sure the image quality is set to 150DPI, which leaves me with a file size of around 2-5mb. Is there a way i can get the compression to happen as part of the PDF publishing process native in VWX ? --- VWX 2014.
