Hi Wayne,

I've got it here but I am unsure of how to get it to you. There is a 16 meg limit on Augi and our emails probably have less. I can try email if you want just send me a mail.

Hi wpeacock

Please note that I have move this thread from the AutoCAD General forum to this one. I believe it would be better suited here.

Thanks

Does Autodesk allow it to be distributed by anyone other than Autodesk...?

Does Autodesk allow it to be distributed by anyone other than Autodesk...? I don't think so. Wayne, try contacting Autodesk directly via the "Contact Us" link found on their web site...

Autodesk - Contact Us (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=1073074)

I would think you could get it from a reseller on CD or something.

True, I was thinking more along the lines of the install being emailed around or posted on a private web site.

At CAD camp the question of PDF v DWF came up and the fact that everybody had PDF. The suggestion was to send DWFveiwer with the document.

In this case would this also be an infringement of copyright?

holy carp just read the license on true convert its just copy of Cad's and does this mean if you work in Two different countries you need two different versions of Autodesk software?

http://download.autodesk.com/global/DWGTrueConvert/DWGTrueConvert.exe

its from Autodesk so theres no problem with sharing etc
