hello to all, sometimes I find myself in the situation that I have to import writings with particular fonts or logos designed externally.
the exchange file is usually a dxf or a dwg, but most of the time it is always an enterprise to create succeeding in managing this type of skecth consisting of innumerable amounts of segments and splines.
Also then I have to extrude or use them as a basis for a feature but most of the time (when it's okay and I can import them) I have to redesign them and sometimes I can't even import them because it fails the sketch (even when I divide it to lighten it).

is there a more faithful and quick way to do this or should you die of this inefficiency of program/compatibility between different systems? ?

Thank you.
 
Hi.

I too have presented this problem, fortunately I do not often use this method. in any case if I break them in various dxfs not excessively complex and rub as much as possible the polylines and especially avoid having overlapping lines, I never needed to redesign them in the sketch.
We hope that others will give us a few more tips, I would not like there to be any parameter that regulates the import to be adjusted.
 
I amount often written and logos in pro/e, and generally on quite complex surfaces and with 15° of sform, unfortunately I always had several problems, and redesign them inside pro/e I found it quite complicated, the best solution I found (although it is not the maximum) is to redesign them with autocad and import them as dxf in the pro/e sketch and copy them with "split copy"
 
personally if I have to project logos on surfaces and import dxf/dwg into sketching environment is a slaughter as you said. I draw them as curves of a 3d file from model-> data recovery- > import amount dwg in part environment. change reference system etc. and carry it back in neutral format. so doing the splines become trivial curves and closes some gaps. then in my model I make model->recovery data->geometria indipedente and amount the model in neutral format. I obviously have to use coordinate systems to place everything. then from there the sketch with a copy of edge always worked well. It's like your method without passing by autocad. Anyway, I don't know how much you have to work in autocad.
 
[MENTION=13287]fetus[/MENTION]I usually have a sketch in .jpg or in the best of the hypotheses a vector in .pdf, and in both cases the thing that I found more comfortable and quick is to fix them first with autocad (because I know it better) or anyway with another cad 2d and import it in pro/and as clean as possible, and in fact doing so I usually have no problem, then if I have to do any other stuff and not use pro/and
