DWG TrueView it is Free

Recently posted on the Autodesk website is DWG TrueView. This is the FREE DWG Viewer that many others had mentioned in blogs and discussion groups. It was finally released.

It is a stripped down version of AutoCAD. It gives users the ability to open .DWG and .DXF files. Additionally, users can Zoom & Pan, switch between layouts and model space, turn Layers or Views on/off, Plot files, and Publish to DWF.

Owners of Composer had a similar viewer under a different name.

DWG TrueView is avialable for free download from the Autodesk website. Click on the title of this post to get there.

If you don't want to fill out the form to download - here is the direct link:

http://download.autodesk.com/esd/dwgtrueview/SetupDWGTrueView2.exe

I filled out the form the first time I went to download, but Firefox crashed on me half way through, so I filled out the form a second time to get to the link. This way, if it crashes again, I don't need to fill out the form a third time! By the way the file size is over 100mb.
