- | This manual describes how to export drawing files in DWG, DXF and IGES formats (→[[en:infra-convert:user:terms#Drawing data format|Drawing data format]]) from the //Solid Edge 2019// CAD system. The recommended settings ensure that the drawing file can be read by #@IC_HTML@# in the best possible way. | + | Described are export settings for the CAD system "Solid Edge" from version 2019. With the recommended settings you ensure that the drawing file can be read by #@IC_HTML@# in the best possible way. |
- | The manual does not describe the drawing exports completely. Please also refer to the documentation of the CAD system provider. | + | GGenerally, it should be noted that fonts must be installed on the respective PC when processing drawing files in an exchange format, such as DXF, DWG or PDF.\\ **See** [[en:infra-convert:user:fonts|Dealing with missing fonts]] |
+ | |||
+ | If an export result is not satisfactory despite the configuration recommendations, we will be happy to support you directly. | ||
