Ok, so I have seen a few threads on this but I am yet to find one with a solution and refuse to believe this can not be fixed. I am working at a Co. that has used AutoCAD 2000 to make drawings of mechanical parts. I was recently hired for my abilities in Solidworks 2010(I have some Acad exp. but mainly arch.).
Problem is, when I use "save as" to export to .dwg, the first sheet in my SW drawing becomes all lines in Acads "model" space. Then, if a second sheet is present, it migrates to sheet 1 in Acad. I later tried to seperate the sheets by checking the "save all sheets to seperate files" box. There has to be a better way. Ideally, all ISO views of the solid should migrate to "model space" in ACAD with sheet 1 in SW migrating to sheet 1 in Acad. Is there a conversion program anyone knows of? Is there a work-around for this? I know that some of my layer issues can be resolved by using a SW to Acad "map" (i.e. all lines being on "0" layer in Acad etc). Any help is greatly appreciated.
P.S. I have spoken with Hawk Ridge Systems (largest SW retailer) on the matter and they had no resolution to the problem
