Summary | 0000180: Allow dxf export of a Drawing sheet | ||||
Description | It is probably fairly easy to convert a svg document to dxf with external converters, but it would be cool to be able to export directly a "ready-to-autocad" 2D file from the drawing module... I'll see if I find some easy/automatic way to convert svg data to dxf, (maybe inkscape in command-line mode?) otherwise I'll build some pipe through the draft module's dxf export function. | ||||

I found that Inkscape is pretty easy to use from command line to convert from svg to dxf: inkscape test.svg --export-ps=test.ps /usr/share/inkscape/extensions/ps2dxf.sh test.ps > test.dxf The ps2dxf program is the standard built-in way of exporting dxf from inkscape. It has several limitations and problems, specifically with texts. A lot of inkscape users are dissatisfied with it and there are many alternative and home-made scripts around. I still need to test some... For ex: http://mydxf.blogspot.com/2008/11/inkscape-r12-dxf.html http://www.bobcookdev.com/inkscape/inkscape-dxf.html |

That feature is now implemented fully inside the draft module (inkscape is not used anymore) and working (more or less, there are still soem issues in the svg->freecad->dxf translation process). I'll refine it over time when bug appear. |
