On the tab you can adjust parameters of drawing export to *.dxf, *.emf, *.wmf, *.bmp formats.

 

The tab is divided to 2 panels:

 

 

If the Show this box before export is marked, the Export tab will be shown before each export.

 

Export to DXF

 

Common scale (unit/m, unit/ft.)

 

Common scale of exporting drawing. The scale can be set in AutoCAD unit per meter (or foot) on the VideoCAD layout.

 

Resolution (m. or ft.)

 

Resolution is the accuracy of export. Objects having sizes smaller than the set resolution could be exported with errors. In most cases the resolution of 0.005m (0.5 cm) is optimal. For big size drawings (kilometers) the export with such resolution can lead to errors. In this case, it is needed to increase resolution and repeat export.

 

Sizes (unit)

 

As the export is usually executed with resolution, different form the screen resolution, it is necessary to adjust the size of nonscalable objects. In case of nonscalable objects become too small or too big in the exporting file.

 

Sizes (unit)

Camera icon, Illuminator icon (unit)

 

In the boxes you can specify sizes of camera and illuminator nonscalable icons in AutoCAD units.

Sizes (unit)

Nonscalable fonts, Hatch and dash lines

 

In the boxes you can specify scale factors for Nonscalable fonts, Hatch and dash lines.

 

Export to BMP,WMF,EMF,GIF,TIF,PNG,JPG

 

Scale factor

 

Unlike Export to DXF, the scale is not related to drawing size (in meter or foot), it is related to screen size only.

 

Common scale

 

Common scale of exporting drawing relatively layout size on the screen.

 

Camera icon, Illuminator icon, Nonscaleable fonts.

 

In the boxes you can specify scale factors of nonscalable Camera icon, Illuminator icon, Nonscaleable fonts.
