DWGCONVERT Command
Converts one or a bunch of selected drawing files to an older or current dwg version available.
The newly generated file can overwrite the original file, and it can also be compressed into a self-extracting EXE file or a ZIP file to facilitate batch format conversion of the entire project drawing.
The DWG file format can be changed in the following version:(AutoCAD 2013/ AutoCAD 2010/AutoCAD 2007/AutoCAD 2004/AutoCAD 2000/AutoCAD R14 (AutoCAD LT 98/AutoCAD LT 97). If you want to share drawings created in later versions with users who use earlier versions of the product, you can go to "File menu" > "DWG Convert" option or execute DWGCONVERT command to start performing batch conversion to an earlier version of the format.
You can choose different conversion package type; In place (overwrite files), Folder (set of files), self-extracting executable (*.exe) and Zip (*.zip).
