    I'm using autosolids.
    When I use the funstion quickdraw, i can make perfect 2D-drawings of every
    3Dsolid in the model.
    Saving these drawings as dxf en opening within autocad works without
    problem.

    However , using these dxf-drawings on my lasermachine indicaties me dat all
    lines en circles are mixed up. Using a simple dxf-vieuwer tells me te same.

    Reopening these files in Autocad shows me again perfect drawings. Checking
    properties of every object is OK.


    What could be the problem ??

    IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WE HAVE DISCUSSED BEFORE

    WITHOUT THE COMPLICATED EXPLANATION, HERE IS A QUICK SOLUTION:

    OPEN THE DXF FILE IN AUTOCAD, THEN
    SET THE USER COORDINATE SYSTEM TO THE 'FRONT' PLANE
    (Command "._UCS" "_FRONT")
    MIRROR ALL OFFENDING OBJECTS
    (Command "._MIRROR" "_ALL" "0,0" "1,0")
    SAVE THE DXF FILE NOW

    GOOD LUCK
