Now, it may be that you want to send an entire package of details to another draftsperson on your team, your client, your project manager; it could be anybody working on your architectural design and construction project. So you can use a tool called eTrasmit. It sends an electronic transmittal of all the details that they need to work on your drawing. If you go up to the Application Menu here, click on the big red A and come down to Send and just hover over Send there, you'll see eTransmit is there. It creates a package of drawing files and their dependencies. Click on it and what'll happen is it gives you a transmittal. So it's not just sending the DWG File. It's sending the JPG File of the grass, a PNG file of the sky and also any plotter configurations and color-dependent plot-style tables. Now, I'm using the Standard Transmittal Setup there. If I click on Transmittal Setups, there's Standard there. I can modify it if I need to. So this is going to go out as a Zip File. I'm going to maintain the existing drawing file formats so that would be a 2007 DWG or a 2010 DWG. Maintain Visual Fidelity; well, what does that mean? That's annotative. Remember we did the Annotative Dimensioning? It may be that somebody with a much older version of AutoCAD that doesn't have Annotative Scaling might need to see that drawing so what'll happen is Visual Fidelity maintains those dimensions or blocks or texts that have annotative scaling but allows an older version of AutoCAD to read them. Transmittal File Folder, well, that's basically where the transmittal file is going to go before I send it. And Prompt for File Name, well, it's going to be 17 Using eTransmit Standard .ZIP file. So it's fairly self-explanatory. It's using the drawing name and then saying Standard Transmittal Setup and then ZIP. And you can use an organized folder structure if you want to as well in the source root folder if you're perhaps transmitting internally. Lots of setting here; you can send an e-mail with the transmittal, you can set the default plotter to none, you can bind any XRefs that are there, prompt for a password, purge the drawings, lots of different settings, include your fonts that you might be using such as TTF or SHX fonts and so on and so forth. So if I include Fonts there and I'll OK that now and close that, you'll see that there's a font map now that's been applied to the list just there. And if I click on the Plus Sign, it tells me which font map it's using. And you'll also see there, there's the compiled shape fonts that I might need to use in that drawing. So you can see it adds as we go. I can also add files. I might need to add, let's say, a Word Document for example or a specification or a spreadsheet. So that can be added too to the transmittal. So once I've done all of that, I would then click on OK and that would create a Zip File for me. Now, where do I want to save that Zip? Well, what I'll do there, I'll check the Folder Listing there and make sure I'm in the right place. So let's just come down here and check where we do and I'll come into Movies and Work Files there. We're in Section 17, which is publishing your drawing there and I'll put that in my Drawings Folder. So that's going to go in there, that Zip file. So I'll click on Save. As you can see, it processes the file, that's done. So I've got a whole package there now ready to go with all that information in a Zip File. I just e-mail it and eTransmit is done and they've got all the information they need.
