this might be a little specialized but i use corel generally to layout architectural drawings. I export them from autocad usually as a .pdf with a variety of different line weights, I notice its not the .pdf but corel tends distort or alter these line weights which typically undoes hours of hard work, is there a way to make these line weights transfer more smoothly to corel?
Hello n3v; I'm used to a older Ver. of AuotCad, All of the lines would import & export as hair lines, I don't know about the newer ver. ( just something to keep in mind. ) Are you related to "R2V2?
Ah George you're back, making them hairline is easy! its when theyre all different thicknesses, perhaps if i set the ones coming out of autocad to match the preset thicknesses that corel has it might help?
also N3V is supposed to be nev but i think that username was taken!
Hello Again n3v; I was hoping you could get me a autograph ( Darn ) How about adding the line thickness in Corel after importing, or using a "Contour"?
George
george, we're talking about thousands of lines in one drawing here!
You can set a "Contour" to what ever you want ( 0.001" ) or more, and any color you like. In sign work we only need + or - 0.125" to make things work. Did you know they have a free trial down load of "CorelCad"? What are you making that is that much fun to make. For me a can of "One Shot" has fixed a lot of problems. Don't Ya Know? And that many lines is where "Not to Scale" came from And where is Brian?
