AutoCAD OwnerGuard

AutoCAD OwnerGuard is a handy tool made for engineers, professors, and anyone else who uses AutoCAD. It helps you manage your document licenses easily.

Manage Your DWG Files

This software lets you set up security features for your DWG files, along with distribution and publishing rights. The best part? It has a super user-friendly interface! You can kick things off by using the ‘Wizard’ feature that guides you through everything step by step. You'll get detailed explanations at each stage, making it simple to understand.

Create Security Templates

With AutoCAD OwnerGuard, you can create projects that act like security templates. These templates can be applied to other documents too! When you're setting limitations, you can choose to allow or block copying, screen captures, OLE drag-and-drop actions, saving new files, and printing. Plus, you can add time limits like specific seconds or set an expiration date!

Combine Options for Flexibility

The cool thing is you can mix and match these options to fit different cases where your DWG files might be used. This flexibility is really useful!

No Traditional Encryption Needed

Now here’s something interesting: AutoCAD OwnerGuard doesn’t use traditional encryption methods. Instead, it adds security features that let you use your DWG file just like before—no need for third-party apps!

Easily Share Your Files

This makes sharing through networks, FTPs, emails, or any storage systems super easy.

Create Unique Access Codes

You can also create dependencies with this tool. That means you can give access to the file on just one machine based on its computer ID or the current Windows installation. If that's not enough, you can even batch generate an unlimited number of license codes to send out automatically to customers who purchase them!

Your Protection Solution

In short, AutoCAD OwnerGuard is a fantastic option for protecting your DWG files. With just a few straightforward steps, you'll have control over the digital rights of your documents and keep your work safe from misuse.
