How do I convert flatpack designs into a DXF format that will import into QuickCAM 2D Design?

The DXF output is only available from the Drawing package in ProDesktop.


You cannot Export a DXF from the Design Window :cry:

Open the drawing package Import the view you want then Export a DXF.

Note dimension lines drawing borders will also be exported so you are better deleting these prior to exporting a DXF.

In QuickCAM 2D Design select File import then DXF.

You can also scale the DXF in Quick CAM :D
