29xthefun Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 Hey People, A few times now I have emailed a DWG to someone to find they can't open it. Also the file seems to lose most of its size. I.e. it was a 300k DWG and when I send it via e mail the person at the other side says its only 1K. I am useing Thunderbird for mailing. Cheers for any help. Quote
fuccaro Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 Does AutoCAd 2008 have ETRANSMITT? If so, you should use it. It is a tool specially created for sending drawings by e-mail Quote
29xthefun Posted June 8, 2009 Author Posted June 8, 2009 Yeah I have used that to make a zip file but the person at the other end cant open it. I may be a problem with Thunderbird but I have sent the e mail to myself and it does the same. Quote
Cad64 Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 It could be a problem with the recipients mail service blocking incoming files. They may need to check their security settings to allow certain file types. Quote
