Ideas Autocad DWG export

Ideas Autocad DWG export

(OP)
I've used the Drafting Tool to create a drawing of a specific part. But when I export it to DWG, it goes through the process asking for file name and such, but doesn't ever actually create the file. I've tried the same thing using DXF, and it works fine (except for the fact that the dimensions and annotation are all gigantic and overlapping when i open it in autocad). So my goal is to either be able to export to a DWG, or fix the problem with DXF. If anyone has any advice, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

hi bpops,
I use the export file DWG ou DXF from ideas V9.1, I used the options as follow : export symbols , convert line type ,deduce units
but if your problem is not solved , you have to drawn your draft in a view , make a symbol of the entyred view , record the file as export to dwg and I am sure you will obtain a good result , if it is not the case , contact me
