Understanding eTransmit in AutoCAD

eTransmit is a powerful tool in AutoCAD designed to facilitate the packaging and transmission of drawing files. It ensures that all necessary files related to your project, including external references (Xrefs), fonts, and other dependencies, are included in a single package for easy sharing or archiving.

Steps to Open eTransmit in AutoCAD 2025

1. Access the AutoCAD Menu:
   Begin by navigating to the AutoCAD menu at the top of the interface. Click on File.

2. Select eTransmit:
   From the dropdown options, locate and select eTransmit. This will open the eTransmit dialog.

3. Set Up the Transmittal:
   In the eTransmit dialog, click on Transmittal Setup to configure the options for your package. You will see various settings that can be modified to suit your needs, such as paths and file inclusion.

4. Modify if Necessary:
   If you want to customize the gathering of files, click on Modify. Here, you can adjust the paths to group all your AutoCAD files into a single folder.

What is an eTransmit File?

An eTransmit file is a compressed package that contains your AutoCAD drawings along with all associated files necessary for someone else to open and view them without issues. This includes all linked files, ensuring that nothing is missing when the project is shared.

How to eTransmit a File

1. Prepare Your Drawing:
   Ensure that you save your drawing before proceeding. This guarantees you’re transmitting the most updated version.

2. Open eTransmit:
   Click on the Application button located at the top left of your AutoCAD window.

3. Select Publish:
   From the menu, choose Publish, and then select eTransmit.

4. Create a New Transmittal:
   In the Create Transmittal dialog, you can choose files to include. Click Add File to select additional files or dependencies you may want to transmit along with your primary drawing.

5. Finalize and Send:
   Review the selected files in the eTransmit window. Once satisfied, you can finalize the package for transmission, either by saving it as a ZIP file or preparing it for direct email.

Sending AutoCAD Files via Email

AutoCAD allows users to send drawings directly through email without leaving the application.

1. Save Your Drawing: Ensure your current drawing is saved.
2. Open Email Functionality: Access the email option directly within AutoCAD.
3. Attach Your Drawing: Your current AutoCAD file can be attached automatically.
