This tool provides a way to plot DWFx files. Autodesk has teamed with Microsoft to seamlessly integrate DWF technology with Windows Vista using the XML Paper Specification (XPS). Once installed, select File > Plot or File > Publish and publish your AutoCAD files to a new version of DWF, called DWFx. Team members can view and print your 2D drawings without requiring additional downloads of plug-ins or special viewing software.

DWFx files can be opened directly within Microsoft’s XPS Viewer, which is automatically installed with Microsoft Vista, bundled with .NET 3.0, and is available as an optional download for Windows XP users. You can also view DWFx files with the latest version of Autodesk Design Review, which allows viewing a DWFx file’s metadata, for example, block properties. Review the Readme for more information.
