Mawgan Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Hi there I have a VW drawing of a planting scheme with about 10 sheet layers. The drawing has been set up using plant symbols and linked schedules by one of our landscape architects (It is quite a big drawing with a large plant schedule). We are trying to export to dwg format, and have tried all versions from 2000 upwards. The file exports but the problem is opening the dwg. When we try to open on our PC with AutoCAD the file gets so far then corrupts or crashes. For info we are on Mac OS 10.4.11 running Landmark 2009, exporting single active sheets. We have also tried exporting as design layers. When we turn off the layers with the linked plant info, the file imports fine. I've also tried ungrouping the plant data but that also will not load in AutoCAD. Anyone else had similar problems? Any help appreciated! Thanks Quote Link to comment
Mawgan Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 Sorry should say that the version of AutoCAD we are running is LT2007. Perhaps a later, fatter, fuller version could make any difference?? Quote Link to comment
Thom Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I have found the same to be a problem. Solved it by exporting just the planting design and then x ref the file into an autocad base. Or export each separately and reassemble in AC. Quote Link to comment
