Topic: DXF Export Version Support

Our DXF Export currently uses the AutoCAD R12 (AC1006) format. This is one of the oldest/simplest versions, and hence has wide support across applications.

I've been considering adding more advanced features such as filled shapes/polygons, however this would require bumping the version to at least R14 (AC1014). The DXF files would then become quite a lot larger and more complex, and perhaps not be as accessible to 3rd party programs. However there are free conversion packages available that can convert to the older version, so that may not be a problem.

I'm interested to hear any opinions for or against making the change.

Re: DXF Export Version Support

Hi David and thanks again for your DXF work.

I vote to  adding more advanced features R14.
