Print to vector-graphics File (.emf etc.) with AutoCAD2002

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by Walter Müller, Jun 2, 2005.

  1. Hello,
    I have a technical drawing in AutoCAD2002 and I want to print it to a
    vector-graphics file (so no tif or jpg). I need the file to insert it
    into a powerpoint presentation, so the enhanced meta file would be very
    good.
    Does anyone know how to do this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Walter

    Use Adobe Acrobat to create PDF file (set it up as a printer) or print to an
    EPS file. You can then open the new file in Illustrator. If you prefer
    CorelDraw, try creating a PLT file using the old 7585 format. Both programs
    will import DWG files directly but you don't have the option of turning
    layers on and off; it imports the whole shebang. From either of those
    programs you can export a WMF or EMF file for PowerPoint.
