Not exporting sheets to DWG properly

Not exporting sheets to DWG properly

Not exporting sheets to DWG properly

(OP)
Okay. When I export drawing files to DWG from Solidworks (2007), it will never export only to paper space. The first tab always ends up in model space and has no saved sheet data. Is there a way to fix this? I would ideally like all sheets to be saved as paper space so I don't have to add an extra tab to emulate model space.

RE: Not exporting sheets to DWG properly

SolidWorks doesn't know if you want paper or model space.
You will need to do as you have been doing.
IMO, create the drawings in SW with the SW models.
