Copy Assistant
Copy a part or assembly with its drawing, in one go.
- Copies a part/assembly and finds its .idw/.dwg drawing
- Copy to the same folder or a new location
- Choose whether to copy the drawing too
- Also helps replace components in an assembly
If you don’t use Autodesk Vault or a similar system, copying Inventor parts and assemblies together with their drawings — and keeping the references intact — is a real headache. Copy Assistant handles it for you: pick a document, choose the destination, and let it copy the model and its drawing together.
Copy model + drawing together
Copies the active or selected document and finds its matching .idw/.dwg drawing in the same folder.
Same path or a new one
Copy to the source document’s folder, or choose a different destination for the new files.
Replace components too
Helps you replace a component within an assembly, not just copy documents.

Does it copy the drawing as well?
Yes, optionally — it searches the source document’s folder for a matching .idw or .dwg and copies it alongside the model.
Where are the copies saved?
To the source document’s folder by default, or a different destination you choose.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — 15 days with full access.

I have been using the earlier version and found it to be very useful and productive, so I made a suggestion to Ashraf that having an option to delete the source documents would be an advantage, essentially renaming the documents. Within several days it was done, it is one of the most useful tools I have used and fits into the work flow I use perfectly.
Ashraf, it’s a pearler, (gem), don’t take it away or I will not be happy.
