    Default Combine DWF's / DWF file size

    Just wondering if there is a way to combine two separate DWF files into one file? I am wondering if there might be a different version of the DWF viewer that I can maybe do this in.

    Also wondering if anyone has had issues with sizes of DWF? Mainly if there gets to be too much information in one DWF file dose it cause issues? Any target size that would be the max?

    Design Review will let you combine DWF files.

    You can drag and drop sheets between two open sessions.

    I will check out design review.

    I did end up finding a way to do it thru windows explorer. You can select the combination of files and right click to select merge. Although you have no options to move the specific drawings around once you have them in the new merged DWF.

    In case this thread is stumbled upon in the future - there is a way to re-order the sheets within Design Review. Simply look for the 'thumbnails' tab in the 'Markups' palette (ensure it's set to 'show' by right-clicking the view then hit SHOW -> MARKUPS). Slide sheets around to your hearts content!

    You can drag and drop pages inside a .dwf document when open in ADR. You can drag a sheet/s to a new location in either the list view or thumbnail view.

    You can also select any combination of sheets and either drag them to the desktop to create a new .dwf of those pages, or to another .dwf (in another ADR session). All links are maintained for navigation provided the target sheets are also included.
