-PackAndGo

Use the -PackAndGo command to create a package containing the current drawing and its dependent files such as References, referenced images, referenced PDF files, font files, font mapping files, PrintStyle files, and Print Configuration files.

You can create a ZIP file or a folder to bundle the drawing together with its related files. Additionally, you can create a summary of the package contents (the list of the related files).

Packages are used, for example, to distribute or send all necessary files together with their master drawing to clients or project partners, or to archive them.

It is the command window variant of the PackAndGo command.

To create a package containing a drawing and its dependent files:

  1. Type -PackAndGo at the command prompt.
  2. If the drawing is unnamed, specify Yes to save the drawing. In the dialog box, type a name for the file and click Save.
  3. Specify Create package.
  4. In the dialog box, type a name for the ZIP file and click Save.

To create a summary of the package contents:

  1. Type -PackAndGo at the command prompt.
  2. If the drawing is unnamed, specify Yes to save the drawing. In the dialog box, type a name for the file and click Save.
  3. Specify Report only.
  4. In the dialog box, type a name for the TXT file and click Save.

    The TXT file shows detailed information about the package contents and provides distribution recommendations.
