    Hello,
    I wonder if there is a way to maintain object colors when going from a pro-e
    drawing to an AutoCad file.
    When I export my pro-e rev 2001 drawing the object colors are lost and all
    objects show up as white in Acad.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Ken, if you export straight to a .dwg file, probably not. If ACAD can import .igs
    files into drawings, Pro/e has several setable 2d iges parameters, including
    IGES_OUT_DRAWING_COLORS which, if set to yes, should retain user difined font and
    line colors. Much of this depends, of course, on ACAD's capabilities, which I
    don't know that well.
