Exporting line color

Exporting line color

Exporting line color

(OP)
Hi,

Back when I was using SE12, I frequently exported .DFT files as .DWG files with specific colors assigned to certain lines.

These files are being used on a laser cutter where the laser will react to the different colors with different power settings.  Being able to export the colors accurately is key.

Now using SE15, when I export a file as .DWG all the line colors revert to black.  I have explored the exporting options, but there are no references to exporting line color settings.

Is there something I am missing here?

Thanks in advance!

-Tim
