Missing Details in 2D IGES & DXF exported files
Missing Details in 2D IGES & DXF exported files
(OP)
When exporting a drawing to either 2D IGES or DXF formats notes & symbols are not included in the exported file
This applies to 'Cut & Paste', 'Import-Linked' & 'Import-Unlinked' items such as Word, Excel & other dft files
When the DXF or IGES file is created, then imported either back into Solid Edge or into Pro/E the geometry & dimensions are there but none of the Imported or Pasted details
Is this the norm? if so how can you create a table on a drawing that will export other than to draw it line by line?
Running Version 12 at the moment
Anyone any ideas?

RE: Missing Details in 2D IGES & DXF exported files
while saving the Solid edge files as .dxf file
you will see the Options button on save as dialog box; click it
then you will see the autocad translation wizard.
select the Autocad version as 2000 with
translate background sheet on export checked and
translate part layer names as autocad layers names checked
then click -> next
untill you get the
create a new configuration then
select Create a new configuration file and copy the seacad.ini file to the required location
then finish the wizard
save the .dxf file and check it:
please Note:
while in case of exporting in Iges format we cannot export the 'Import-linked' such as excel etc
we have tried it on solid edge 12 version with update 8;
bye take care
