AutoCAD DXF AutoCAD DXF (Drawing Interchange Format, or Drawing Exchange Format) is a CAD data file format developed by Autodesk[1] for enabling data interoperability between AutoCAD and other programs. DXF was originally introduced in December 1982 as part of AutoCAD 1.0, and was intended to provide an exact representation of the data in the AutoCAD native file format, DWG (Drawing), for which Autodesk for many years did not publish specifications. Because of this, correct imports of DXF files have been difficult. Versions of AutoCAD from Release 10 (October 1988) and up support both ASCII and binary forms of DXF. As AutoCAD has become more powerful, supporting more complex object types, DXF has become less useful. File structure[edit] ASCII versions of DXF can be read with a text-editor.

If you want to play CAD with the big boys and girls, you need to carefully organize the objects you draw, their properties, and the files in which they reside. This guide provides the basic information and tools for doing all these things, without putting a T-square through your computer screen in frustration.

LT Unlimited CADD Manager You notice something. Then you become concerned. Then it becomes an “Issue”. These are the steps of items evolving beyond annoyance, anomaly or abstraction. How things move from Noticed to a Concern If you notice something, you keep your eye on it and address it when it first looks to be a concern. After investigating things you notice, if they are bigger than you think or have greater impact, they move to concerns. But when do people come and talk to you about troubling items? How things move from Concern to Issue Moving from concern to issue happens when something along the pathway of correction fails to work. Things get to the issue level by being ignored. Things get to an issue level when you are not made aware of them. Things get to an issue level when your corrective measures are not enough. Next up… When Issues Descend into Failure
PowerPoint Tips Blog Iconography is hot in design now. Here is an example from one of my websites. The above icons are colorful and have some depth to them, but you often see icons that are flat and monochrome. I often see icons that are all gray. What is an icon and why are icons so popular? An icon is a graphic used as a symbol for a concept. Because our brains remember images better than text, your audience will be more likely to remember the concepts you want to convey with an accompanying image. Icons are also popular for other reasons: They can be universal, understood by people speaking different languagesThey can be small, which means they work on screens of all sizesThey are small files because they’re simple, which is valuable on smaller devices with little storage An icon can be any file type, but if you can find a vector format, you’ll be able to import it into PowerPoint and edit it to your heart’s content. Where can you find icons? One of the best sources I’ve found for icons is Iconfinder.
Using Unicode You can insert a number of special symbols into Mtext. In the Mtext editor select the symbol icon "@" on the formatting toolbar to get the symbols menu. But what if you want to insert a symbol not in this list? There are a number of characters in most fonts that can be inserted with some good old fashioned arcane syntax. Notice all the \U+xxxx codes on the menu? Let's say you wanted to use the less than or equal to symbol. In Character Map select the True Type equivalent of the AutoCAD font you're using in your drawing. In the Mtext Editor type this Unicode value where you wish to insert the symbol.
