Export to DXF with only one view in the DXF

Export to DXF with only one view in the DXF

Export to DXF with only one view in the DXF

(OP)
Hello,

A colleague of mine needs a DXF with only one view in it.
If i make a DXF export there is a model-view and a sheet-view in the DXF, but the program she uses the DXF in can't handle that.
Our previous program, I-Deas, could make a DXF file with only the drawing-view in it.
Is there a way to create a DXF-file from only a drawing sheet?

Thanks already.

Using NX 8.0 on Windows 7 (64)

RE: Export to DXF with only one view in the DXF

If ALL you want is the view of the Drawing sheet, open the Drawing in NX, 'Export' a CGM file, 'Import' the CGM into an empty NX file and then 'Export' that file as a DXF file.
