Export drawings

In the Drawing workspace in Fusion, you can use the commands in the Export panel on the toolbar to export sheets and tables from a drawing as PDF, DWG, DXF, or CSV files.

You can use the following commands to to export sheets and tables:

Export PDF
Export DWG
Export Sheet as DXF
Export CSV

Note: You can also print sheets in a drawing from the File menu.

Export PDF

The Export PDF command exports the sheets in a drawing as a PDF file.

Export DWG

The Export DWG command exports the sheets in a drawing as a DWG file in the AutoCAD 2013 file format.

Some annotation objects, like Datum ID, Feature Control Frame, and Surface Texture, are simplified. Dimensions are no longer associative. The drawing is not associative to the Fusion design, so it doesn’t maintain any relationships when you edit the design.

You can export two types of DWG files:

Simplified DWG: Exports the contents of the current sheet as a DWG file, including views, title block, border, and all annotations as 2D geometry in Model Space.
AutoCAD DWG: Exports the contents of all sheets to a DWG file. Each sheet is exported as a separate Layout tab.

Export Sheet as DXF

The Export Sheet as DXF command exports the sheets in a drawing as a DXF file.

This provides a result similar to the Simplified DWG option in the Export DWG command.

Export CSV

The Export CSV command exports the sheets in a drawing as a CSV file.

Text formatting is not included in the CSV file.
