Ed Wachter Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hi all, I am exporting DWG floor plans to a structural engineer who is using "Autocad 2019 3D Map". Some doors and windows are changing width (getting wider) in his software, so that they extend beyond the ends of walls. He sent us a PDF, a portion of which is attached. I've been exporting DWGs to consultants for at least a decade without running into this. Any thoughts? Are there DWG export settings that might prevent this? Thanks, Ed Screen Shot 2024-01-25 at 5.42.23 PM.pdf Quote Link to comment
Jeff Prince Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 It would be interesting to see a portion of the file you sent the engineer and the same portion they have in DWG. It looks like a symbol scale issue which sometimes occurs in AutoCAD products depending on the units you are using. Quote Link to comment
Ed Wachter Posted Monday at 07:21 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 07:21 PM @Jeff Prince Apologies. I missed your post. We never got this resolved. The engineer ultimately agreed to work from PDFs instead of DWGs. Ed 2 Quote Link to comment
