AutoCAD LT :: Converting DWG To PDF
Jul 9, 2013I have upgraded my Adobe reader to XI and when converting DWG to PDF the files comes out very heavy (heavier than the DWG!) and all curved lines comes out very very light comparing to straight lines.

May 18, 2012I have just started using v2012 from a 2008 version and whilst i had no problem converting to pdf before I now cannot do so. The command acad.pat cannot find file appears when i load up Autocad and since i don't understand the consequences of this I just cancel the window but when I try to PDF a DWG the same command appears so I guess it is quite an important file that is perhaps missing. Do I need to reload the software or how do I resolve this.

Mar 10, 2013I was giving the task of converting DWG files to DXF. Here's what I have question on.
1. The DWG file was created with certain formats such as text, arrow, lines types as well as the drawing being in a diff scale, ex: 2:1. Later changed to 1:1 for the DXF file.
2. When I convert the file, which was straight forward, no I lost all my settings as describes above. For ex: I have some dims with tolerances, but now gone.
3. Is there an EASY way of changing the DWG to DXF without losing any formats?
I have attached a screenshot of a drawing converted to DXF and not re-sized and the other re-sized 1:1
AutoCAD Inventor :: Converting STP / IGS To IPT
Nov 30, 2012I have a file from a suppliers website that comes in either STP or IGES files. I'm trying to convert it into an IPT to be useable in one of my models, but I don't seem to be having any luck with it. I don't convert many STP/IGS files, and most of the time when I do they just work without many issues.
I can get the model to look proper in this one, its just that working with it makes Inventor run incredibly slow. When I want to add an assembly to a drawing that is using this model, it takes several minutes just to place the view, removing the part and it works quickly again.
The part can be downloaded here:

How to best get this file to a useable IPT file, as I can't have it grinding my computer to a halt every time I use the model.
AutoCAD Architecture :: Converting Over From CTB To STB?
Nov 9, 2011While in the drawing I want to convert I started with CONVERTCTB, the dilague box appears and I selected my current CTB plotstyle (the one I use to do my regular plots with) and upon accepting it another dialogue box appears asking me to name the new STB plotstyle. I did so and a message came up informing me the conversion was successful.
I then typed CONVERTPSTYLES and a message comes up followed by the dialogue box where I am to select an STB file. Here I selected the file I created in the CTB conversion in the previous step.
The conversion seemed to work correctly but when I go into the layer properties manager the plotstyles all have the same named style ie style 1, when I select one of these plotstyles to change it all except 3 styles are noted as missing.
I read that when I complete the conversion I should have plotstyles with old_pen_01 etc.
I have attached a snap shot of the resulting layer manager. The active plotstyle is the one that was converted during the CTB process ie the first step above

AutoCAD 2010 :: Converting DWG To DGN
Dec 10, 2012I'm using the convert to .dgn function of ACAD and I'm getting a message that tells me I can't use the 2D seed file because there are one or more objects not in the Z = 0 plane. There shouldn't be anything not in the Z = 0 plane. I've used the FLATTEN command and all that seems to do is reproduce a block (and the same block every time thats not even part of my object selection). I can't seem to find the object(s) that are not Z = 0 using all methods I can think of. Does the 'NORMAL Z' have something to do with this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Converting EPS File To DXF

Sep 17, 2012I work for a very large Electrical company in Toronto and we are having problems with one of our major clients (happens to be one of the biggest design construction companies in Toronto).
They designed the job with Microstation and the contractor and sub trades on site all use Autocad. However we have to edit all the original drawings from the designer with Autocad to do the as built drawings and then transfer them back into DGN for the submittals.
However despite all our efforts every time we transfer them in Autocad the text alignment is off. including the dimensions which for what ever reason show up upside down?
Now we are talking about thousands of drawings here so any easy way to convert files from dgn to dwg and have it work out perfectly.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Converting 3D Solids To 3D DGN?
May 10, 2013I've been trying to convert 3D dwg models to 3D dgn models without success, using AutoCAD 2012.
The DGN either displays the solid, which isn't visible in a Microstation extraction or it just exports the centrelines/linework and not the solids.
Is this possible in newer version ? i.e. 2013/2014.
I've tried the export to ACIS .sat file and that works fine, but it moves everything to the same lavel/layer which defeats to object of seperatng the items in the first place.

AutoCAD .NET :: Converting COM-based Application
Nov 5, 2012I currently have a Windows VB.net app that uses COM to open/save/close and manipulate drawings in AutoCAD..Here's how I open a drawing
AutoCAD_CurrentDwg = AutoCAD_Instance.Documents.Open(strAutoCADFilePath)
I work with various blocks and their attributes like so
Dim AutoCAD_Block_Attributes As Object = AutoCAD_Block_Reference.GetAttributesFor Each Me.AutoCAD_Block_Attribute In AutoCAD_Block_AttributesDim strAutoCAD_Block_Attribute_TagString As String = AutoCAD_Block_Attribute.TagStringAutoCAD_Block_Attribute.TextString = strSomeDB_Value
As I mentioned, this runs external to AutoCAD but I was wondering if it would be beneficial to re-write the app to run within AutoCAD... also, I believe that COM is "obsolete"? I think that my app could be revised to run inside AutoCAD via NETLOAD, using ObjectARX? One concern I have is that my app right now works with many versions of AutoCAD, not need to re-issue because my DIM statements are generic...
