What is a PWT file? A PWT file is a web publishing template used by AutoCAD, a 2D and 3D design and drawing application. It contains settings used to publish drawings ( .DWG files) as web HTML files. PWT files include image, text, hyperlink, color, webpage title, and video animation properties that control how drawings are published.

More Information AutoCAD includes several default PWT files that designers can use to publish their drawings in a variety of HTML formats. These include: Array of Thumbnails, which creates a webpage that contains an array of thumbnails Array Plus Summary, which creates a webpage that contains an array of thumbnails paired with summaries List of Drawings, which creates a webpage that contains a list of drawings List Plus Summary, which creates a webpage that contains a list of drawings and summary information about a selected image Advanced AutoCAD users can copy and modify these default PWT files to create customized publishing templates. NOTE: PWT files are not the same as .PTW files. PTW files are drawing-specific and are created after a PWT file has been used to publish a drawing in HTML format.
