relative path of the ctb with ettransmit

[Saru]

I tried to search in the forum some references but I found nothing to help me in my doubt. .
I hope I'm not lost in a glass of water!

I happened to receive from outside an etrasmit containing also the ctb (and already for this I was amazed!!! ), but the whole new thing for me is that the reference paths were related to the folder! ! !

I find the very practical thing, because I am not forced every time to fill the folder on c:
above all I am not obliged, in the case of my transmission,:wink: to explain how to print the tables! ! !

I can't find how to do it in the publishing settings. someone can tell me how it is possible to do it!?!? ! ! ?

fats!

I didn't understand what you mean by "the references were related to the folder."
in the insertion phase of the xrif (which is an image or a dwg), in the insertion window is asked (pop in the upper right of the dialog) what type of path to insert in the xrif.
I usually use "no path", which inserts the path of the xrif as .\nomexrif. ext.
this allows autocad to find the file referenced in the search paths, as well as in the folder where the drawing resides.

in all cases, when you give the etransmit command, you can change the settings (bottone transmittal setup) and you can choose a set of options, including how to create the structure of the directory of the zip file. choosing "all files in one folder", a zip file will be created with all the necessary references, which once disappeared will reside in a single folder, regardless of their location when entering the dwg.

crystal, thank you so much for trying to help me, but I didn't mean ref.esterni or images...but the path of .ctb

at the time of etransmit it is possible to set that the print refers to the folder where the file was extracted! ?
in this way I could send a zip file, as to say..independent of the paths c:\users\xxxx\appdata\roaming\autodesk\autocad 2013 - italian\r19.0\ita\plotters\plot styles

I don't know how to explain. . .

It is possible, but not "only" for the ctb, it would go for all the transmitted files.

How do I do it?

Thank you!

change the transmission settings in the etransmit window.
