An entry in a drawing formatted in a →drawing data format (DXF, DWG, IGES) will be highlighted when you pass over it with the stamp tool. This way, you can see which files will be accessed when stamping this entry. The standards for drawing formats are intended to ensure that each drawing entry is exported from the CAD system as an standalone group of vector elements (text block). If this is not the case, you can deconstruct a text block into smaller elements using the Deconstruct text block function.
The following example shows several text items contained in a text block that must be stamped individually.
Note With the Stamp group function, you can do the opposite and merge non-grouped text blocks when stamping. This function is described under Functions > Characteristics > Automatically stamp > Step 4c.
Step | Action | Result | |
