Connection path of files in DWG

In AutoCAD you can insert raster images and then link , PDF (version AutoCAD 2010), DWF, DGN files (Microstation) and the same reference DWG outside, called XREF, simply through the function Attach, Figure 1.
.

Very often I receive emails AutoCAD users report that when I open the DWG file and not finding the Annex and in its place a sign indicating the location where you find the attachment.

To avoid this, remember two things:

1) Create a folder to contain the dwg file and all its annexes, the latter also included in subfolders;

2) When you move or copy a file DWG Remember to also bring along all the attachments and not just the drawing file.

followed the previous tips, we can ignore, during insertion, the option on the Route Type: Full or on , Figure 2, in that when we open a DWG file contains attached files, AutoCAD will charge more if they exist within the same folder is located in the DWG file, even during the rescue, the attachments were in different folders and we chose the option full path.
