Greetings,

I've been fighting an exporting issue for quite some time now and thought I'd see if anyone out there might be able to shed some light on the issue. I'm attaching two files to help expain my issue. One file is an export to DWG and one is an export to DWF. I've converted both files to PDF for easier viewing. On the DWG export I've highlighted phantom objects that appear only on the export. On the DWF export these item do not appear (they do not appear with in Revit itself either).

I've only run across this issue with item that are a part of the Electrical Fixtures Family.

The second item on the DWG export that is causing problems is the text at the lower left hand corner of the drawing. The text does not export as the same size in autocad as it appears in revit causing the text to flow beyond the viewport in autocad.

The text issue appears on nearly every export that I do.

These two issues cost a great deal of time to manual fix/check and they also concern me with the possible inconcestancy of my drawings to my consultants/contractors.

Thanks in Advance,
Shawn
