The command allows to select AutoCAD export options.

 

These options are:

 

Format: Allows to choose the export format (DXF or DWG).

 

 

A DXF file is an uncompressed text file. It is much bigger than a DWG file. Some old software versions can only convert DXF files.

 

 

Version: Allows to choose the export version.

 

Basify dimensions: Dimensions will be converted into blocks made of lines and text.

 

Create blocks: If the exported document is a Drawing, its groups will become Autocad blocks when checking this option.

 

Entities selection (only for 3D documents): Allows to choose:

 

Pages (only for drafts): Allows to choose the pages of the document to export. You can select/unselect all pages (by clicking buttons) or choose one by one by selecting them in the list.

 

Elements choice (only for drafts): Allows to graphically select all elements to export.

 

Reference point (only for drafts): Allows to select the origin of the file to use for the export.

 

Reference frame (only for 3D documents): Allows to select a reference frame if needed. If no frame is selected,the absolute frame will be used.
