Converting Acad 2007
« on: February 20, 2007, 02:40:19 PM »
Half of our office is on Acad 2007, the other is on Acad 2004.  We've downloaded the DWG TrueConvert Utility from Autodesk and it seems to work well in converting drawings back and forth.  The conversion is "permanent", though (saves only in one direction), so you always want to be working with a copy.

Regards to all.

Well, why not set the preferences on AutoCAD 2007 to save the drawings as 2004 file type .. unless there are 2007 entities that you want to keep .. but the True Convert program would affect those too .. but I agree that True Convert IS a valuable tool .. Autodesk should have had this available a long time ago ...
