You can share views of your design by forwarding a generated link to the people that you specify without releasing the DWG file itself. You can publish design views to a secure, anonymous location within Autodesk A360. The PDFSHX system variable controls whether text objects using SHX fonts are stored in PDF files as comments when you export a drawing as a PDF file. Some properties such as PDF scale, layers, lineweights, and colors can be preserved. SHX fonts in PDF files are not supported for PDF import. The precision of the data is limited by the precision of the PDF file and of the supported object types. The PDF data can come from either an attached PDF in the current drawing, or from any specified PDF file. You can import the geometry, fills, raster images, and TrueType text from a PDF file into the current drawing.

A new migration interface organizes AutoCAD customization settings into groups and categories from which you can generate a migration summary report.
