Solid Edge ST2


This manual describes how to export drawing files in DWG, DXF and IGES formats (→Drawing data format) from the Solid Edge ST2 CAD system. The recommended settings ensure that the drawing file can be read by infra CONVERT in the best possible way.

Basically, 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.
SeeDealing with missing fonts

If an export result is not satisfactory despite the configuration recommendations, we will be happy to support you directly.
