Navigation:  Configuration Basics > CAD Export

The CAD export configuration consists of at least one file. Depending on how complex the export is and on how the structure should build up in CAD, so called header files can also be defined. The header file includes the definition of layers and blocks, which should be contained in the output file in a predefined state.

Following types can be exported with the cad export:

oPolyline

oText

oHatch

oDimension

oInsert (Block)

The type Insert is for a block that can be controlled at when delivering the xml. More examples on this can be found in the Chapters First Steps - Creating a CAD Configuration and configuration examples.

A XML Editor with syntax highlighting is recommended for processing the configurations.

 

 

In the tag <General> it is mandatory to change the attribute DefaultDir. In this directory the header file is searched.

 

To be able to perform the CAD export through WebOffice, the configuration of the CAD formats must have the suffix 'xml'.

In the WebOffice export author the suffix 'cadexport.config.settings' is used.
