Text/Dimension loss from *.DWG to *.DXF

[kennof]

Whenever I write text or enter dimensions in my .dwg file, I always lose the text and/or dimensions when I transfer the file to .dxf format. Is there any way I can retain the text and/or dimensions when transferring the file to .dxf format?

Note: The .dxf format has to be saved into AutoCAD R12 format for the other program to understand.

Thanks,

Ken

It is very common for all CAD programs to not retain text/dims in DXF. Very little will work, if any.

You could try exploding the dimensions first.
