AutoCAD Open from an FTP Server
|
Opening an AutoCAD file from an FTP Server is accomplished by the following steps:
- Use the File/Open command
- Choose the Search the Web icon.
- Type in the FTP Server address in the format:
ftp://UserId:Password@yourdomain.com/path/
The example FTP Server is:
ftp://eg2:eg2@theearchitect.com/proj1/eg2/
- Click in the drawing file to automatically complete the name in the Name or URL text field
- Click on Open
The file will open in the normal AutoCAD edit window.
A Zoom / Extents command may be necessary to see all of the new image.
When you do a File/Save command, you will actually save to the FTP site.
