| I cannot pull DWG drawings into KIP print. Did I not load something? I can select and pull over a pdf with no problem. |

DWG files are not 'print ready' files....meaning that they require a native application (AutoCAD) in order to print.
You can use a PDF as it is a 'print ready' file....a PDF was generated from a native application and then the native application used a PDF generator to create the print ready file.
Open the DWG in AutoCAD and use either the KIP Windows Driver or HDI driver to output directly to the KIP printer. Or from within AutoCAD, you can generate a PDF file or DWF file.

| Yes DWF files are print ready but dwg files lack the information such as print size needs for the printer to print them. |
