REDUCE AUTOCAD DRAWING FILE SIZE | AUTOCAD WBLOCK COMMAND 

Dear Sabeer, THANKS for the excellent and simple trick to reduce the heavy file. i am a senior citizen, learnt (not really) autocad by just using - don't have formal training in this course; and your trips and tricks help me to gain additional knowledge. keep up the good work. wish you all the best.

Just don't forget to collect any ExRefs, Fonts (.shx), or any other data that may be a main factor in your final display. Radical Purge is another effective tool outside of the standard PURGE command for reducing file sizes. But, this is still one of the most effective when reducing file size of a current drawing. He has alot of great videos to shed light on tricks and best practices for beginner to advanced users. Thanks again as always for the videos. A new video you could do I think would gain attention is imagery and best practice for inserting, attaching, importing or embedded. Most states have free map data and of course there are the pay sites. Just depends. The old zoom in to Google earth imagery and take smaller sections and mosaic them into your drawing is def one that most don't use. It takes a little work depending on the area, but the final product is rewarding knowing that the resolution can hang with the paid imagery sites. There are tricks as well to give that really good sharpness. Tricks like SuperHatch where the grass looks as real as it does on your front lawn. Take care.

Para ponerlo en práctica de inmediato... Muchas gracias por compartir tus conocimientos Mr. Sabeer!!!

Thank you, very yousefoul video and channel. Keep up the good work ;) Greetings from The Netherlands, EU.

thanks for the most useful tip. using this process we can only copy the model to new file, then what about the associated layouts(viewports). please give me the tips.

hello i have done almost everything to reduce the file size of a drg but still nothing worked. I have used wblock, purge, audit, overkill,layerdel still my file size is not reduced

Thank u so much...this information is very useful for me

Nice trick... But what about layouts which are not reflected in a New DWG file, this is why the file size goes down. This method usually use for making separate drawing from existing one. But appreciate your effort... Thanks.

I've just tried it, and YES it reduces the file size BUT it deletes all the drawing tabs with viewport, hence that's why it reduces the size. It only keeps what is in MODEL SPACE. Treat with extreme care!!

Can use compressed file method in the file Explorer
