hello to everyone, I've been having problems lately when I make tables with inventor, I'll explain:

I do my project in the invetor, I create my piece and so far all right.

I go to the table to make the odds and the various views.

save the file in dwg and open it with autocad to see if it works.

I see it well and it keeps proportions and quotas.
il problema:when I go to give this dwg file to a mechanic for production, he can't see it, where am I wrong? Do I have to do something special?
I follow the standard procedure. Where am I wrong?

I thank you very much for the attention and help.

Have a good day. Hi.

but you talk about inventor or autocad?, in theory once you do dwg, you should not have problems.... I also tried to open it with autocad 2009 and then go up for autocad 2004 and also in dxf...

Hi.
but how do you generate your dwg?
because an account is producing it by name and specifying it inventor design file *.dwg...
and an account is to give it save copy by name, specifying autocad designs *.dwg

You do this second, don't you?

then, to understand better, it would be to understand precisely as already required, that message you have when you open it; he can't see it is a little vague...

at the limit, you could also attach it to this discussion, at least one part, that does not show sensitive things unpublished, to try to open it and examine it.
 
Honestly I make an automatic rescue, in the sense once I complete the drawing at the table, I save and give it the same name of the piece, the second method I didn't even consider it and I didn't notice.. .

not by opening error but opens a blank sheet. . .

I'm just giving the place home tonight.

thank you guys very kind. . .
 
as they have already told you the problems there can be even only with the dwg.

Things are two:
1) the type of dwg if of autocad or inventor
2) the version of autocad and dwg to open

1) if you save in inventor dwg if the "mechanical" does not have an updated version (I believe from 2008) will not open it and in addition (of this however I am not sure) I believe that if you did with 2009 and he also has 2008 not open it and then must still have the base 3d file to be able to open it (I repeat that these two last points are not sure)

2) dwg versions are starting from 2000: 2000 - 2004 - 2007 - 2010 and are not retroactive, i.e. if saved in 2010 if one has previous versions will not open it.

you should look at inventor's dwg settings to figure out how to save automatically:

tools -> application options -> drawing board

there are the settings for saving and version.

I think if you open a bianoc sheet means that it is a dwg inventor file and lacks the 3d base from which to draw the "form", but I'm not sure.
 
....

Yes, but he says that he also did save in older versions (2004) and it is assumed that the mechanic had versions at least compatible with this.. .


@ silvermoon
there would then be to be checked, as you speak of white sheet, even between paper space and ladle space; Sometimes, depending on how set the autocad display by inventor, can copy the graphics in either.

Of course, I don't explain why you see him well with your autocad and he doesn't...

it is not said, I know some who nowadays work Nacora with the 14 and win 98...

I hope nothing more than having said in previous posts on the version and 3d for the inventor dwg.. .
 
what ilario says in part is very true, not all update, a little for money a little for laziness, even in my grazific field is so, there are people who still use programs that are not even more developed, or use old versions only for lazific to learn something new... .

ps second when the laziness of learning comes into play, ends a person's will to move forward even on a personal level in his life... personally this is a very bad thing.. .
 
It was like you said... I didn't save autocad, but I was an inventor. Now I tried and it works... thank you all, you are too kind and helpful. . Thank you very much.
