Viewing and Downloading Documents
Clicking a document in ProjectWise Web View will either open the document for viewing, or download it.
For Office documents, PDFs, images, and text files, clicking the document in the document list opens the document in a new browser tab.
For CAD documents (such as DGN, DWG, RVT) and other document types, clicking the document downloads the document to your local file system, and then you can open it as usual in the appropriate application.
You can also download selected documents or an entire folder of documents using the Download icon.
If you do not see this smaller icon on the document icon, you can assume that you do have File Read permission on the document and you should be able to view or download the document. Note that this smaller icon is also the same icon that indicates if a document is a non-active version (non-active versions can viewed or downloaded, assuming you have File Read permission on the version).
Downloading a Document
To download a standalone document:
- Click the check box next
to the document and from the action menu select
Download.
A copy of the file attached to the document is downloaded.
To download a master document (DGN, DWG, or RVT):
- Click the check box next to the document and click the Download icon (or select Download from the action menu to the right of the document).
- When prompted, click
Yes to download the references along with the
master document, or click
No if you just want to download the master
document.
When you download a master document and its references, the entire set is downloaded to a single ZIP file.
