How to open dwf with illustrator

To open a dwf (design web format) on Windows, you'll need to right-click on the file, select "Open with" and select on Adobe Illustrator and click 'ok'. If it fails to open you will need to acquire the Autodesk Design Review software.

You can also download some free dwf viewers which are available online.

You can get one such free viewer from the BravaViewer website.
