Out in the shop at each work stations the employee has a display that they View drawings on. This viewer is web based and works great,

This viewer is way before my time but I will try and explain it to the best of my ability.  First to create the drawings for the shop employees to view I have to Launch autodesk 2002 and print to the "WHIP" printer and that prints the file as a .DWF, my understanding is that WHIP printer was something autodesk implemented for saving to the .dwf format.  As far as I know .DWF is a dead format.  The shop viewer is linked to the directory that the .dwf are saved and the guys can view, zoom, and print. 

Every drawing the company has ever made is saved as a .dwf .dxf, and .dwg and that is roughly 10,000 drawings

I have been given the task of finding a new viewer that my company can incorporate into our in house web browser that is IE based like i said before. 

My first thought was using a PDF viewer but going through and setting the print window printing 10,000 drawings didn't sound like fun.

I called my SolidWorks re-seller to ask them if there was an e-drawing web viewer and they told me to just use draftsight. All I want is a viewer, I do not want shop employees the ability to change drawings.

Anyone, any ideas??
