Package a Set of Files for Internet Transmission
With eTransmit, you can package a set of files for Internet transmission.
Drawing files in the transmittal package automatically include all related
dependent files such as xrefs and font files.
A common problem when sending drawing files to someone is neglecting to
include related dependent files such as xrefs and text fonts. In some cases, not
including these files can make the drawing files unusable by the recipient.
With eTransmit, dependent files are included automatically in the transmittal
package, reducing the possibility of error.
Choose the Files to Package
The Create Transmittal dialog box includes two tabs. Using these tabs, you
can view and change the files to be included in the transmittal package.
■ Files Tree. This tab displays a list of files. You can expand or collapse each
drawing file in the list to display its dependent files. By default, dependent
files are automatically included in the transmittal package unless you
uncheck them.
