Purge multiple AutoCAD drawings
SmartPurger is the ultimate AutoCAD software for purging multiple AutoCAD drawings at top speed with full control. SmartPurger is a batch processing utility that allows you to purge multiple drawings.
A Unique feature is that the file time stamp can be restored. SmartPurger handles crashes so the script continues to the end and leaves bad drawings. This is extremely useful before backups and distribution of drawings.
SmartPurger is for example useful if you want to minimize the size of files before a backup or before sending drawings by e-mail, burning to CD or just to use as a quick viewer of drawings. You can even save the files to a separate folder or to a different drawing version.
Execute custom scripts and more
SmartPurger can also execute custom script files (.SCR) or AutoLISP files (.LSP, .FAS or .VLX).
You can also set up SmartPurger to run different AutoCAD applications for different drawing file versions. Moreover you can specify the profile to be used when starting AutoCAD.
From a real project: 1773 drawings and a total size of 526MB in 2000 DWG format become 218MB in 2004 DWG format. Conversion and purging was made totally unattended.

What customers have said about SmartPurger
“this program is one of the best utilities I have seen in a long time … I just purchased a copy yesterday and ran it on my network today cleaning up a few larger projects. Some drawings went to 10 % of their original size - finally a tool that can get rid of all that useless invisible data in the Architect’s drawings. This will free up a lot of space on my server … Thanks for doing a great job and making it available for an affordable price !”
Herbert Kornhuber,Hidi Rae Consulting Engineers Inc.
“I have run this on your 200gb of AutoCAD 14-2005 DWGs and it is an awesome tool, we have gone down to only 125gb! That’s saving us hours and hours of backup time.” - PB
“First I wanted to thank you, Smart Purge is a mini miracle, we have several hundred gigabyte of CAD files, dating from 1992 to 2007 and have used Smart Purge exclusively to convert, clean, and repair ALL of our files in readiness for the 2008 release of AutoCAD, as before now we would open, and save as needed, Audit and Purge files as we went along, and generally waste 100’s of man hours trying to remove native AutoCAD issues like bad layer, and random object data corruption we considered Smart Purge a absolute life saver.” - PB
“è un programma fantastico !!!!!” - arri
“Thank you so much for your quick response … much appreciated. I have been using the SmartPurger quite a lot over the last few weeks and literally freed up several Gigabytes of space on my server. I noticed that the new version allows to run a custom script - you must be a mind reader … I was hoping for that possibility to be added for a while and was not aware it was already included until I looked at it last evening as I had to re-install.” - Herbert
“Helpful utility programs are always great and worth the money in a business where time is money. SmartPurger is one of the best values yet!!” - John
