Import and export of graphic documents |
Scroll |
When working with graphic documents in KOMPAS-3D, the following options are available:
•Interchange of graphic documents (import and export) between KOMPAS-3D and other systems via the AutoCAD format (*.dxf, *.dwg):
•import — from versions of the format AutoCAD R14, AutoCAD 2000, AutoCAD 2004, AutoCAD 2007, AutoCAD 2010, AutoCAD 2013, AutoCAD 2018;
•export — in the format version AutoCAD 2000, AutoCAD 2004, AutoCAD 2007, AutoCAD 2010, AutoCAD 2013, AutoCAD 2018 (the desired version is selected by the user when setting up the recording).
•Writing of graphic and text documents KOMPAS-3D v25 in the following formats:
•formats of the previous versions of KOMPAS-3D: KOMPAS 5.11 R03, KOMPAS-3D v23 and KOMPAS-3D v24;
•raster formats (PNG, JPEG and others);
•format Enhanced Metafile (*.emf);
•format Scalable Vector Graphics (*.svg);
•Portable Document Format (*.pdf).

As a result of export, a document of the selected format is generated which preserves the visual identity to the original. However, the structure and internal links of document objects in the KOMPAS-3D system and similar objects in the new format may differ. As an example of such objects, we can bring in layout elements of a drawing: sizes, leader lines, etc. When editing the resulting document, the appearance of such objects may change in such a way that they lose their identity to the objects of the original document. Similar changes of objects may occur during multiple conversion of a document from the KOMPAS-3D system format into another format and vice versa Therefore, it is recommended to use documents saved in a different format for viewing and printing. |
The general order of import and export
1.Call the appropriate command:
•Open... 
— to import a document;
•Save as... 
— to export a document.
2.In the File Type list of the dialog that appears, select the desired format.
3.Specify the folder and the file name.
4.Click Open (when importing) or Save (when exporting) in the dialog.
For more information about the conversion process and its configuration, see the sections:
