Xara :: Export Drawings To MS PowerPoint?
Apr 29, 2011
I remember from older versions of Xara that you could copy a drawing from Xara, paste it into MS Powerpoint and here still edit the drawing after ungouping and converting inside Powerpoint.
This doesn't seem to work anymore with Xara Designer 6 Pro. When I copy the drawing it only pastes the text from the drawing into Powerpoint. Exporting wmf or emf did not work well enough. The drawing ist there, but you cann not edit it in Powerpoint. Yes: Exporting as jpg, gif or png is no problem, but not what I want.
So my question is: What is the best way of importing drawings into Powerpoint and still use them as a vector file in Powerpoint. (It is so much easier to create the graphics in Xara ...)

I've just updated to the latest version which I'm pleased to say resolves both the pdf arrow issue and the text issue I had.
Xara will not paste text copied from a table in powerpoint 2010. My workaround is to copy and paste the table text into a text box within powerpoint and then copy that text into Xara. However I do a lot of pasting from tables in powerpoint and obviously if i could copy direct (as I could from older versions of powerpoint) then my workflow time would half for this -

I am new to AutoCAD and have to export many drawings to PDF format to send them out to clients. I was wondering if their was a Macro or some other way to export drawings into pdf form without having to open each file and pressing export to pdf button?

I have a client who is requesting that I send them ".dwg" files of a particular project. They are asking for both 3D solids AND 2D drawing files.
1.) I can export the assembly files to a 3D DWG easy enough but how do I do it for 83 files using task scheduler or something; I cannot figure it out?
2.) We have used ".dwg" as our native drawing format because we have people here who have a need to open our IV drawings using AutoCAD. Can I just send my client these files, without the supporting part files, and have them open them?
3.) If I just send them a copy of our native ".dwg" files are they going to be able to re-use that geometry somehow? There isn't a real IP concern as these are just pipe supports and platforms made from available steel shapes but I certainly wouldn't want them to be able to take our work and re-use it on a different project without us. If they have to do some crazy stuff like explode and scale and re-dimension these things in order for them to be re-usable on a different project, I would at least prefer that to them just being able to reuse them easily. I guess what I'm saying is that if they are going to re-use this content, I am not going to make it easy for them that's for sure!

is there a way of exporting my AutoCAD drawings in high quality? Maybe Tiff?
The problems I have with exporting is that if export a drawing as a *.wmf the thick lines come out too thick even when using the 0.3 mm thickness. If i use the 0.25 mm thickness the lines are as thin as with the default thickness.
The contour lines of an image I imported into my AutoCAD drawing are coming all blurry when I export into wmf file even when using the 600 dpi resolution (highest available on the menu).
Inside my AutoCAD drawing my image map has a very high quality but when I export it, with AutoCAD polylines on top of it, the drawing comes out horrible.
I painted a blue polyline to represent a river in a contour map. This is for a civil engineering project. When I export the drawing, the polyline comes out too thick and the image behind comes out blurry. This happens even when using the highest definition possible for a wmf export (600 dpi).
I've read in another thread about a way of exporting into tiff. I followed the directions but the thread is not well explained. It doesn't say whether it is necesary to have or buy certain software. And it doesn't say what to do next to export the tiff drawing.
how to export high quality AutoCAD drawings?

I am currently trying to etransmit or export one of our C3D drawings to CAD 2007 to send to a client. Every time I estransmit or export a lot of boxes appear on the exported file. Does anything know what they are or how to get rid of them? it won't let me freeze them, they all seem to be one block together.

1 How do I determine what coordinate system a drawing I have received has been prepared in?
2 I know how to export drawings to a .shp file but how can I export this drawing to a .shp file and ensure that coordinate system is maintained or otherwise changed for use in Arch GIS?
I have successfully exported the .shp file geometry previously but the cordinates system doesn't seem to match ARCGIS data sets. I am trying to establish is this an Autocad or ArchGis issue I suppose.

Does the embedding of color profiles no longer work in Designer Pro 6?
Try to export as PDF.
Preset Selections: Custom.
Click on Advanced Options.
Choose Pre-Press.
Here I chose a custom color profile (PSRgravureHWC.icc), which significantly changes the colors.
Everything worked okay in Xtreme Pro 5.
But now, when I switch on Embed profile, the resulting PDF shows the same colors, as if the switch was not ticked.

I haven't used Xara in a while but tonight I did some adjustments on a jpg and tried to export it as a .pdf. For some reason I do not have the option under Export Files to export to a pdf. I know I have done this many times in the past. Is my Xara corrupted or something.

I'm currently working on a project that requires modelling in revit but exporting the final drawings in Autocad format. As a requirement from my client, I am demanded to export the entire paper space into the model space as Autocad entities.
When I export the drawing, the composition that I model in Revit is shown in the paper space, Is there a way to automatically export this composition into the model space?

I am exporting a file that contains a background photo with text over the top. When I export, the text is great....crisp and clean however my background image is becoming pixelated since I am making this a large print. Any tips to increasing resolution to photo files. I see there is a way to increase / bring in files at their actual size. So I may need to try that. Others?

I have a xara file with lots of images.The saved xara file is about 45Mb.If I try and export this as PDF with 300dpi or 600dpi, I get an error that says 'File could not be saved'
Is Designer Pro X not capable of handling this size of file?
I would imagine that there are users out there who are dealing with very large images and probably much larger file sizes.Is it simply that the dpi I am choosing, is the cause?

I am trialing the DG&P of xara. I am creating embroidery files in another software. I need to import in .emf. Most of my clipart, etc that I use is jpeg or png. I am wanting to take those into a program, create the vector file, and import to the embroidery software so that I can manipulate/simplify how I need to to create the stitch out. So, when I am in xara and I bring the image in, I select all and choose export in the .emf format....I figured that out. But, when I bring it into the other software I have a blank page. So, I figure I am missing something. Is there a quick way to convert the outline I bring in (in png) to vectors so that it can export and be manipulated in the other software in .emf? or do I trace the file in xara as I would in the other software, have a rough sketch, and then export? Where is the best info on what to do? I am pretty good at following tutorials and lessons but before I buy I just want to make sure it does what I am wanting it to do.

I am running Windows XP PRO and Xara Designer Pro X.
Previously I have been able to export my work to PDF, but as of today the PDF option has vanished from my list of exportable formats.
It works absolutely fine to print as a PDF-file, but export is not an option anymore.

When ever I export to PDF from Designer Pro 7 a graphic ends up in the PDF file that isn't any where in the Xara doc. It happens on most files exported from Xara but not all. It also happens on both my laptop and my desktop PC. I'm pretty sure it used to happen in WD6 so it may stem from there.
I've attached a PDF exportd from Xara, you shouild hopefully see two black.. um.. cartoonish feet / foot prints. God knows where they came from, I must have imported them at somepoint. You should also notice they only appear on the first page of a document.
I've tried searching for just outlines in Designer pro but nothing.
Is there an .INI file or cache file I can clear?
I haven't tried a re-install yet as it happens on two PC's so can't see it being that.

I noticed that when exporting a trifold to PDF, that a transparent PNG file contained in the design, actually has an opaque background, not transparent. I have used Commercial Printing as the export mode and played a little with custom settings.

When I'm working on a design for which I'm generating options, like a logo, I usually work with one Xara file and a new page for each option. When it's time for me to export each page as a JPEG or PNG, it's really frustrating that each and every time I have to tell Xara to save the Page, NOT the default Page Content. I'm thinking there should be a way for Xara to remember and repeat my last export settings, but I can't find it...

I 'm using XDP pro X and made a logo for some friends of mine and exported it to PDF using commercial printing PDF X. When you look at the pdf the colors are a bit more flat than in the PNG or JPG export. Also you can see an aditional line in the black line arround the stones. How I can get the same colors as with JPG export and get rid of the line?

I am having difficulty with the pdf export settings.It seems like it is working fine but text will not show up when viewed on Apple computers/ipad/iphone. Pdf opens fine on my windows system.I know that I can "print" to a pdf viewer like "cute pdf" or similar but those viewers distort and cut off pages and are a general pain to use with xara.
I could also convert the text to "editable shapes" but then all the 'l' 's look terrible and the text generally looks very rough and horrible.

I have a problem delivering a vehicle wrap I designed with XDP 7. The thing is 215" long x 72" height and includes some bitmaps, so it is not 100% vectorial. Now, how do I export that for the printer? They say they need the file 100% scale @ 300 DPI, when some other online dudes say they can do with ~150DPI, to scale the image 1/4, etc.
When I try to export full size, XDP doesnt let me put anything beyond 70 DPI or so, even if I type 300 in the box, it gets rid of the last zero. So....how do I do it????

I have a Xara Xtreme Pro 4 document, a multi letter size page document with text and color images (59) pages. My intention is to create a 300 dpi PDF with included printers marks, full bleed, cut marks, etc. When I export to PDF, I select PDF/X (1a) and select export. Having sent the file to my publisher, I am told that the printers marks aren't present in the document. I have no way to verify, as when I open the document, I only see the basic document (no printers marks, etc.)
My assumption was that the printer's software would be able to see this whereas the basic PDF reader cannot. Again, I have no way to verify if the printers marks exist.
Should I be creating a larger page size to accomodate the printer's marks? What am I doing wrong in the export that the printer's marks aren't being placed?
I am sure PDF/X 5 is better and might be available in a new version of Xara, but I would think PDF/X 1a - 4 any of them should be appropriate to place the necessary marks. What don't I know?
Don't know if the PDF is worth looking at to verify, but it is 254 MB in size containing unpublished material, I don't want 'released'.
