(i.e. files cannot be deleted from a published .nwd file). The file can also be used with the NavisWorks
Freedom™ free viewer. This command is only available if you have the NavisWorks Publisher option.
See “ Publishing from NavisWorks ” for more information.
Printing

Printing the Current Viewpoint
When the print option is selected, it prints the current viewpoint scaled to fit and centered on the page.
