    Unhappy File protection

    Is there a method to digitally lock or protect a revit file when you send it out to a client, enabling them to view the model and it's properties, schedules, etc. without enaabling the user to modify the file? Looking for some sort of copywrite lock.

    Not as a Revit file but you can send them a 3D DWF that will allow them to access all that info.
    All the hyperlinks are kept intact too so the client can navigate around the set by clicking their mouse

    I agree with Dimitri, DWF is definitely the way to go. Even PDF can easily converted to DWG but not DWF.
