    Create a Section View then create a Detail View.
    (geometry in view must contain real arcs)
    Export to DWG.
    Import back into SolidWorks as a drawing.
    Check the Detail View.
    Opps....

    It seems SW's converts all the arcs to circles...
    Can someone check this before I call my VAR?

    Thank You

    This is actually nothing new ...first time I saw it was in a detail view
    taken from an isometric view showing tubes and swivelling connections in SW
    2001. Exporting this detail view to DWG created huge cirkels. As John sais
    it screwed up the plotting and preview with lines all over the drawing, this
    could not be seen on screen, but converting to DWG showed what it was. If I
    remember right somebody at that time said it could depend on center lines
    beeing out of center....but I'm not really sure that was the case.
