[ptc-5781881]

Hi,

I worked on design of a bracket in PTC Creo Parametric 2.0. Our customer wants drawing in DXF format since they are using PTC Creo Elements/ Direct Modelling express 4.0. I have created a drawing and saved to DXF format. But the drawing i submitted is not opening in Creo Elements/Direct Modelling Express 4.0.

can anybody help me what went wrong ?? and help me in resolving this issue.

Hello,

Modelling Express 4.0 is not able to load dxf acad version 13.

Dxf must be version 10 or earlier.

Hi,

You mean to say that. While creating the DXF the version has to be 10 Or Earlier ??

Hello,

what you want to import in Modeling Express 4, a 3D model or the 2D drawing of the model.

A 3d dxf you can not load in to the modeling, there you must try with .stp or .igs.

Hi,

I want to Import 2D drawing (.dxf) of the Model.
