Export sheet to DWG Model Space

[janunson]

Anyone know any tricks to get a sheet to export into DWG model space?

We have engineers using Autocad who reference a common project title block. Architects in revit maintain information in the revit model. Our sheets are right, but we have to remember to update the DWG file for the engineers. I was looking for a way to make a stripped-down title block to export to DWG for engineers and consultants to use as a titleblock base, but Revit saves sheets to paperspace, so the xref won't work. I haven't figured out how to get project parameters to show up in a legend view either, or that might work...

any ideas?

So far as not being able to export the sheet to model space - would using the CHSPACE command (to move the exported sheet to Model Space) in the AutoCAD file after export be sufficient?

I guess it's the best option so far. Thanks for that, i'll play w/ it.

Hello there,

I am running into a similar issue. Our client wants to archive all drawings they received into their system. We are using Revit 2013 and they need AutoCAD 2000 and all content to be in model space.

The problem is, when we export to cad, the Model itself is in model space and Titleblock in paper space. We try to use CHSpace and move items to model space, but the layout of the plans/notes/titleblock in model space is not even close to what the original sheet layout was. Is there a way to keep the exact same layout from Paper space and move it to Model space?

Thanks,
Lorne
