How to convert nwd to nwf file

As far as we know, the only reliable way to create a .nwf file from a .nwd file would be to use Autodesk NavisWorks software that uses both these files types. Considering a .nwd file is a complete file and the .nwf is somewhat limited, it is likely that nwd to nwf conversion is indeed doable. It might be possible that some 3rd party viewers can accomplish this as well, however it is usually more safe to use the original tool.

Understanding NWD and NWF file formats

NWD and NWF are both file formats associated with Autodesk Navisworks, a software application used for reviewing and managing 3D design files. NWD files are published files that contain all the model data, including geometry, textures, and metadata, and are used for sharing and viewing purposes. On the other hand, NWF files are working files that reference other design files and are used for project coordination and collaboration. They do not contain the actual model data but rather links to the source files.

How to convert NWD to NWF

Converting an NWD file to an NWF file involves extracting the data from the NWD file and creating a new NWF file that references the original design files. This process is typically done within Autodesk Navisworks itself.

Best software for NWD to NWF conversion

The best software for converting NWD to NWF is Autodesk Navisworks Manage or Navisworks Simulate. These applications provide the necessary tools to open an NWD file and save it as an NWF file.

Steps to convert using Autodesk Navisworks

  1. Open Autodesk Navisworks Manage or Simulate.
  2. Use the File → Open menu to open the NWD file you wish to convert.
  3. Once the file is open, go to File → Save As.
  4. In the save dialog, select NWF as the file type.
  5. Choose the desired location and save the file.

By following these steps, you can successfully convert an NWD file to an NWF file, allowing for further project collaboration and coordination.
