Client Drawing Sanitizer Pro

Client Drawing Sanitizer Pro — AutoLISP + DCL

Prepare a separate client-delivery DWG with simplified layers and drawing properties. Client Drawing Sanitizer Pro brings block explosion, Layer 0 cleanup, property resets, and delivery checks together in one dialog.

Useful when you need to provide editable CAD drawings while reducing the layer organization and pen-weight mappings included in the delivery file.

Features

• Separate Delivery Copy: Process a staged copy while retaining your working drawing.
• Block Explosion: Explode supported block references, including nested references.
• Attribute-to-Text Conversion: Convert supported visible attribute values into ordinary text.
• Optional Dimension Explosion: Convert supported dimensions into graphic components.
• Layer 0 Cleanup: Move writable entities to Layer 0.
• Uniform Lineweights: Reset supported entity and layer settings to a uniform 0.25 mm setup.
• Color & Linetype Resets: Apply ByLayer colors and simplified linetype settings.
• Plot-Style Cleanup: Optionally remove layout plot-style sheet references.
• Purge Unused Definitions: Attempt to remove unused layers and block definitions.
• Internal Review Report: Report remaining blocks, layers, dimensions, and cleanup failures.

Requirements & Important Details

Requires full Windows desktop AutoCAD with Visual LISP, DCL, and ActiveX support in multiple-document mode. Bind or remove external DWG references before processing.

Cleanup can change visibility, text appearance, dimensions, and plotted output. Unsupported objects, remaining styles, and embedded metadata may retain information. This tool does not prevent clients from copying editable DWG geometry or guarantee removal of all proprietary drawing standards.

Source and dialog checks have passed.Review every layout and a plotted PDF before sending the delivery file.
