dwf export

Anonymous
Not applicable
I'm trying to export dwf and dwg files based on my archicad model because most designers need them that way (they all use autocad) but I'm having a few problems!

DWF exporting goes out with a diferent scale (a wall 5 meters long shows up on dwf viewer 50 meters long) and most of the continuos lines show up dashed, even though they're all continuos.

DWG I'm having a really hard time getting the drawings out with right colors!

This is important because everybody elseworks with autocad

thanks

I don't use DWF, but to get correct scale in DWG you have to set the DWGUNIT correctly for the reciever in your translator.

To have full control over pen colors in the DWG file, you need to use the Keep Index Number translator and check and perhaps customize the included pen table. (If you customize, do it on a renamed copy)
