Use the Publish to Web Wizard to Create Web Pages
The Publish to Web wizard simplifies the process of creating DWF or DWFx
files and formatting them for display in HTML pages.
The Publish to Web wizard provides a simplified interface for creating
formatted web pages that include DWF, DWFx, JPEG, or PNG images of
drawings.
■ DWF or DWFx format does not compress the drawing file.
■ JPEG format uses lossy compression; that is, some data is deliberately
discarded to greatly reduce the size of the compressed file.
■ PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format uses lossless compression; that
is, no original data is sacrificed to reduce the size of the file.
Using Publish to Web, you can quickly and easily create an attractively
formatted web page, even if you are not familiar with HTML coding. After
creating a web page, you can post it to an Internet or intranet location.
Following are some examples of ways in which you can use the Publish to
Web wizard to create a web page:
■ Templates. You can select one of four templates for the layout of your web
page or customize your own template.
■ Themes. You can apply a theme to the template you've chosen. With
themes, you can modify the colors and fonts in your web page.
■ i-drop. You can activate drag-and-drop capability on your web page. Visitors
to your page can drag drawing files into a program session. i-drop files are
ideally suited for publishing block libraries to the Internet.
For information about using i-drop to create an i-drop handle on a website,
see the i-drop documentation on the Autodesk website at
http://www.autodesk.com/idrop.
NOTE You can also customize the template you use for your web page. For more
information about customizing templates, see Customize a Publish to Web
Template in the Customization Guide.
