CONVERTING SHEETS TO .DWGS

[Bim Man]

i have 2 problems occurring:

1. when i convert to dwg my floor joist designer when he tries to open it gets a message saved in an incopatible format. he is using 2000i LT. i saved the dwg's as acad 2000 dwg format. he should be able to open them right? i dont' know.

2. when i open them all my sheets have the roof plan showing. the sheet will state 1st, 2nd flrs or electricals or whatever but the roof plan is in that pages crop region

How are you exporting these sheets? one at a time or batched?

batched, by selecting multiple sheets in the print menu.

The second problem is aknown bug and can only be resolved by exporting them 1 at a time. I had thought it was fixed onlater builds but maybe not.

The first issue I'm not sure about but you may find that the dialog defaults back to saving in AutoCAD 2004 format if you alter anything else, much like the printer dialog reverts to prn, not plt when you try to plot to file.
