eTransmit for Autodesk Revit 2017

eTransmit is a tool for Autodesk Revit 2017 that allows users to create a package of all the files associated with a Revit project. This can include linked files, external files, and related textures and other assets. The package can then be easily transmitted to other users or stakeholders.

eTransmit is included in the main menu of Revit 2017. You can find it under Add-ins.

eTransmit can package .rvt, .rfa, .rte, .txt, .dwg, .dgn, .dxf, and other file types associated with your Revit project. For a full list of supported file types, please refer to the Autodesk documentation.

The package created with eTransmit can be saved to a local location or to a network share. You can then send the package to other users by email or file transfer. The receiving user can then open the package in Revit to work with the project files.

Yes. eTransmit is available in Revit 2018 and later versions.

Yes. eTransmit is fully compatible with worksharing in Revit. However, it is important to note that worksets and ownership will need to be resolved before transmitting a package created with eTransmit.

eTransmit provides you with several options regarding linked files. You can choose to include them, exclude them, or modify how they are handled (for example, by detaching them or creating new links).

While there is no specific limit to the size of a package created with eTransmit, it is recommended that you keep the package as small as possible for ease of transmission and to avoid issues with file size and compatibility.
