# E-mail the standard license file request form with the serial number and the number of seats to Autodesk (Authcodes.neu@autodesk.com) and a new license file will be returned.
 
# Rename the file with a clear descriptive name
 
# Change the extension into ''*.lic''
 
# Copy the license file at the server to the folder ''C:\Program Files\Autodesk Network License Manager\License''
 
# Move the old file into the subfolder ''old files''
 
# Open the license manager application ''LMTools'' and reread the license file under the tab ''Start/Stop/Reread''
 
 
 
 
 
== Autocad DWF ==
 
 
 
 
 
Design Web Format (DWF) is a secure file format developed by Autodesk for the efficient distribution and communication of rich design data to anyone who needs to view, review, or print design files. Because DWF files are highly compressed, they are smaller and faster to transmit than design files. With DWF functionality, publishers of design data can limit the specific design data and plot styles to only what they want recipients to see and can publish multisheet drawing sets from multiple AutoCAD drawings in a single DWF file. They can also publish 3D models from most Autodesk design applications.
 
 
 
DWF files are not a replacement for native CAD formats such as AutoCAD drawings (DWG). The sole purpose of DWF is to allow designers, engineers, project managers, and their colleagues to communicate design information and design content to anyone needing to view, review, or print design information – without these team members needing to know AutoCAD or other design software.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Notes'''
 
* DWF can be created from AutoCad 2008 and higher
 
::''File > Export''
 
* Use the SAT file format to export from Rhinoceros
 
 
 
 
 
== Installing AutoCad 2009 with SC2008  ==
 
 
 
# Login as '''Administrator'''
 
# Uninstall '''SC2008'''
 
# Go to Network Places --> Server --> '''Deployments''' --> '''Autocad2009'''
 
# Run '''ACAD2009NLM''' --> NEXT --> Finish + Restart(''you don't have to change anything'')
 
# On first start of AutoCad2009 '''Migrate''' settings from '''ACad2006'''
 
# Install '''SC2008R4''' from server as '''CLIENT'''
 
# Desired AutoCad version --> '''ACad2009'''
 
# Next --> Finish (''you don't have to change anything'')
 
# Install the latest updates
