Entasis Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 It seems that when we import .dwg or .dxf files that were saved in AutoCAD these files become much larger as VectorWorks files than they were as .dwgs. For instance a 5MB .dwg file will become a 30MB VW file. We are working in 12.5.2 on Macs, if this matters. Are there any import settings we may be missing that could help to keep down the file sizes? Quote Link to comment
jan15 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 You could try purging unused symbols. Some Autocad users store all the symbols they have in every drawing file, for convenience. Quote Link to comment
