export dwg/dxf

[Horizon]

Hi, meet me.
use solidworks recently and are a former graduate student for a year. work for a small company that deals with mechanical processing.
I come to this point: I was asked to create settings (dot) with cartiglio and corporate logo. I managed to create the dots both part and various formats. inside the cartiglio I put corporate logo as image and various writings (code, material, weight etc...) I also need to save the table in dwg.
It happens that when I take and open with autocad, the image is not in the cartiglio but is moved and in addition all the writings are no longer in the frames. Can anyone help me? I tried everywhere before writing but if I write it is because I found nothing. Thank you very much.
p. s. forum really top!

using images as a logo in the carts is not the maximum, if I can avoid it. the size of the files increases significantly (and with an archive of thousands of drawings counts) and are not manageable when passing the dwg. for this I ricreo the logo with solidworks commands, as a normal sketch with samplings etc.. to have dwg without images. the problem you have with the pictures doesn't amaze me so much, the fact that they move the annotations instead, is strange. Have you tried to manage dwg export settings and set to use solidworks characters?

Hi.
first of all thank you for the answer.
I redesigned the image and solved it.
I discovered instead that it is the type of character. gotich century practically when I go to export to dwg and after having opened it with autocad, tends to overlay the character and to do it longer. This doesn't happen with arial character. apart from autocad sees all the characters that you carry out from solid and transmut them into txt. should I map them?
other question if I may: but when I create drawing patterns, I start for example from an a3 where I set up all quota settings with various preferences, how do I keep them and create other formats?
every time I add a property example "mass" I have to change it in the correct dot? and if I have to add it in the cartilage I have to rename the cartilage block and reinsert it new various correct formats?
Thank you so much!

as first do not confuse design model with drawing format. you create a .dot design model and all various design formats a0, a1, a3, ect. that interest you, where you set the score, the cartilage and everything you need. when you need to create a table set open your .dot model and then set the format, then you will have your model set with the format you need for the table setting you are doing. formats, but also templates save them in a folder that then go to set up in the file positions in the sw options. As for the characters surely it is a question of not matching between the two software, then set the same characters in both and you will see that you will no longer have those differences.

but then for the creation of the design model.dot go on file-new-drawn. At this point he introduces me the teaming but could I have a normal white sheet without square and without proper cartilage? then, after setting the quota options save it as drawing.dot? to create formats with the folder instead I can always use this file and save it as "Save sheet format? for example I make cartiglio with various connections and except the cartilage block. for the score? and for other formats? I'm sorry, but I think I've gotten into it... thank you.
ok for characters. if true type selection keeps you the format but the nn writing is more contained in the cartiglio

 

[drake]

create the file of the model saving it as a model at the time of rescue. formats save them as you said by saving the drawing format. similarly also blocks. so when you open a new design with the template you created, he creates a drawing file with the template settings. then choose the format you need and you can also change if you realize that what you initially set doesn't suit you anymore. Last thing, when you create the .dot if you save it with a certain format, when you use it he creates the design with that format. if you save it without any format creates the design with the white sheet.

Thank you. Thank you very much, very kind! ! !
the last question:
when I unload a particular step or get a part from a supplier, how do I assign my settings to that part? idem with a set.
Thank you!

I have not understood your question well...when you import a generic file, whether step or other formats, within sw you have a simple solid, which you can edit or not with all the functions that allow you to do so by not editing the functions that created it. If for your settings you mean parameters you can insert them into the file properties or even if you prefer creating a separate cut and insert them all the settings you want.
If instead with settings you intend to have the opening of the generic file with a given model, you do it at the time of opening the file when sw asks for the reference model.

I mean when amounting a part or step I should assign the properties as: mass, name, date, material etc. Just take my part model and cover these settings and then take them off into the proper imported model properties?
Thank you!

 

[drake]

I believe that you just open the file to import by pointing to it your part and/or together model, where obviously the paraprets that you need are already set. the only doubt is that you will probably have to assign the material, because I don't know if it takes it automatically with any material assigned to the model. I then indicated that you could also create a cut dyst where you set all the parameters. i don't know your software knowledge, but I suggest you look at the internal sw tutorials to understand how the program works.

Hi.
Okay, I'll try to do as you said.
I have a more "problematic" problem apologies the lap of words. I set the mapping with the various colors for export in dwg. the centering pockets that you see in the image I set them light blue color (cian) but in the dwg you don't want to see them cyan but white, while if the axis the design makes me see it right i.e. cyan.
other thing, see other image: in the cartiglio all the words I see red and the part I fill is white except the word "revision description" that makes me white and I don't understand why. I tried in solidworks to copy one of the red ones and to replace them but always white find.
I need to make the green line and the yellow text, can I do it or not? while the yellow finishing tolerances but the "form tolerances" item does not match and do not find the item in the list.
Thank you!

in solidworks design are on a level? with the active tick under the mapping you are keeping the solidworks levels.

cannot be done automatically, if necessary it should be processed with autocad after export

Hi. on this I can help you less, as I have found my balance and do not make further evidence. as suggested most likely depends on the location of the entities in the layers also working on the mapping. try to remove and tick and check the layers well. same thing for writing in the cart.

 

[Horizon]

you have checked the levels, even they are not very clear their operation. I tried to change from format to no one in writing, but then if you remove or put the export popping on "middle entity " also there changes again. I have to do some evidence. cmq for the text edited in autocad and solved so. Unfortunately, from solid you can't do it. I should be ok cmq. Thank you! This forum is really top!

In fact I have verified and it is precisely so there is no way to re-edit in autocad. Thank you so much!
