Opening DWG/DXF Files
You can open DXF and DWG format files in ArchiCAD.
You may open them as Drawings or Layouts. Choose File > Open and
then select the file you need in the directory dialog box.
See details on how to place external drawings at:
Place Drawing from External Application.
It is possible to customize the size, scale, title
and framing options for your drawings in the Drawing Settings dialog
box. The Embedded Layers control in Drawing Settings, available for
Drawings with a DWG, DXF or DWF source file, lets you change or
adjust the source layers’ visibility.
See Drawing Settings.
You can keep conversion rules for data exchange
between ArchiCAD and AutoCAD in a file called a Translator
(extension XML). Choose the Open command in order to use the default
translator, and the file you’ve selected will be opened in
ArchiCAD. The default translator of ArchiCAD is set up in a way that
the translation in most of the cases is pretty accurate. However,
because of the differences between AutoCAD and ArchiCAD in order to
obtain the best translation a custom set up may be required. Choose
Settings to open the DXF/DWG Translation Setup dialog box if you wish
to switch translators or adjust settings before opening the file.
You
may access this dialog box when:
|
•
|
A
data transfer operation begins, after you’ve pressed the
Settings button in the Save, Open or Merge
directory dialog box
or the Attach XREF dialog box, if the import/export file format is
DXF/DWG,
|
|
•
|
directly
with the File
> File
Special >
DXF-DWG
Translation Setup
command,
|
|
•
|
when
opening a DXF/DWG file through the
File > Libraries and Objects > Open Objects
command,
|
|
•
|
through
the File
> Libraries and Objects > Import Blocks from DXF/DWG
command.
|
Every
time the Translator dialog appears you have the chance to perform
translator management – it can be during data exchange (open
and save) or also through translation setup.
Teamwork users keep in mind:
That using common Translators ensures that all users will have
access to exactly (or more or less) the same conversion options. That
is why we recommend to let your CAD Manager (or whoever is in a
similar position in your office) take care of the set of Translators
and place them on a server. In order to use the translators, each
user must first introduce them into their own list of Translators.
