Define Drawing Description
Purpose
The Define Drawing Description function specifies a description of what the .dwf file represents.
Syntax
Opcode format | Opcode | Operand Format | Comments |
Extended ASCII | (Description | <ws><TDesc>) | Explains the contents of the .dwf file. |
Desc String describing what is represented by the .dwf file
Details
Some DWF reading applications may need to "know" what the image in the .dwf file represents. The DWF generating application can indicate this with the description opcode:
(Description 'Blueprints for Pam's new office')
Notes
DWF reading applications should not expect to be able to parse the Desc argument, though it could be shown to a user.
A .dwf file should contain a maximum of one occurrence of this opcode, which by convention should be nested inside a Define Drawing Information Block opcode.
Default
By default, no drawing subject is defined, which is equivalent to
(Description unknown)
