The structure of the DXF output is defined by these two files (inlcuded with installation)

  1. Feature Table in the Cadcorp_ACAD-MM_FeatureTable.nol
  2. Default DXF Template file Cadcorp_ACAD-MM_Template.dxf

Save these two files in a convenient location. Upload the 1. Named Object Library (NOL) to GeognoSIS. Add the path to the 2. DXF template in the relevant field (see above).

Click Save.

The user can now download any map view to a DXF file.

  • The DXF will be exported to version DXF2018
  • The export will be hairy i.e. if a feature is included in the Map Window view and extends beyond the Map Window, the entire feature will be exported.
