Convert dwg drawing to older version.

  • Hi.


    Can one of you convert this drawing to version 2010 or earlier? Because my Cad-program cannot open it, if it is saved as a too new AutoCad version. The customer is not working with this architect more, so maybe she cannot get the drawing in another version.


    Oh - extension .dwg is not allowed, so I cannot attach the file. :wink:

  • Hmmm - ok I try. :smiling_face: WinRar Zip archive?? For some reason my 7zip does not appear to work anymore, not sure why. Should have a look at it sometime, when I have time.

  • Thank you very much for the help. :smiling_face:


    Can you delete the attachment, so it is not available for others? I have downloaded it.

  • One question: Is it possible to use the "layout" sheets, to insert into Dietrichs or it has to be from model space?


    So if I want to have just 1st floor and save it as dxf, to import to Dietrichs, can I:
    - Delete all sheets, so just layout sheet for 1st floor is left and then use that.
    - Or maybe I have to work only in model space and delete all the drawings that is not 1st floor, then save to dxf to import to Dietrichs.
    ??

  • Only the model space can be imported in Dietrich's. Layouts are only kind of a view port onto the model. So to only import the 1st floor, the model has to be reduced accordingly and then saved.

  • Ok - that was also something like that I was thinking. But I was not sure if maybe a layout could be imported. But I assume that if I delete everything in the model space then the layouts perhaps would be empty also.
