When you attach a DWF or DWFx file as an underlay, you link that referenced
file to the current drawing. Any changes to the referenced file are displayed
in the current drawing when it is opened or reloaded.
NOTE If you plan to access DWF or DWFx files from the Vault client server, the
Vault file open dialog box supersedes the Select DWF File dialog box. Access to
the Vault client server is only available to Autodesk Subscription customers.
