Export Drawing to DXF

Hello Community,

I need some help with my DXF export. I have a client who is requesting a DXF of a part which also includes a sketch. Long story short there is a part profile and then some additional information contained in a sketch for the part. The sketch contains locating geometry for manufacturing purposes. The problem I am having is when I export the data to a DXF all of the information contained in the sketch is blurry or muted. The detail around the physical part is clear and scales properly when I zoom in.

Does anyone have any insight as to what is going on and how I may fix the DXF export?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi,

You may isolate that sketch as per the software available for manufacturing operations. Simply create a layer and add that sketch to it. Rename layer if required.

Hope this will help.

Hello all,

Thanks for the replies and the suggestions. I am happy to say I have figured out the solution but I must admit it's quite embarrassing. The reason I was losing all of the clarity when I was exporting was simply because of my view display state. Insert facepalm emoji here. I had the environment and all of the views set to "shading with edges" and when I switched it to "no hidden" I was able to get the desired result. I am falling on my sword here in the hopes this information can be useful to someone else.
