Export Drawing ![import_16](image11_30.png)
Using the 'Export drawing' button, you can export the current measurement sheet to a separate file, including the measurements you have created. The drawing can be exported only if it is saved in the database and not as an external reference.
You can export the drawing to various file types, such as: dxf, dwg, dgn, wmf, bmp, gif, jpg, tif, png, ico, svg, dwf, pdf.
Using the
export option in the above file types, you can edit the drawings along with the
measurements in specialized design applications or even transfer them along with
their measurements to another computer in the form of a .pdf file for checking
purposes.
When
exporting the drawing only the visible measurements are exported, as separate
layers. That enables you to export the drawing with only the measurements you
want each time and then edit it easily using a CAD software.
The export file does not contain any data from
external references of the drawing, if there are any. In addition, if the
drawing is not stored into the project but is an external reference itself, then
only the layers of the measurement sheets are exported and not the original
drawing.
