Crop the DWG to show only the area you need. This works if you "Placed a linked DWG" in AC.<BR /> <BR /> 2. In the DWG export filters look for and check "Save DWG with cropped View content".<BR /> <BR /> HTH Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:17:12 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Removing-Autocad-Trace-Refs/m-p/174707#M20436 Eduardo Rolon 2013-07-24T12:17:12Z
