Hi,
I have a automatized system to create a DXF with hundred off pieces of a plane.
In AutoCAD 2012, now the DXF file have about 200KB, there is terrible for the hard disk in the server. The Piece is a lwpolyline with 5 to 10 vertex, no more.
I'm looking the solution for this problem.
Earlier version of AutoCAD have only 50kb to 100kb of size. The ir strong too. but 200KB there is very bad.
Now AutoCAD 2012, save in the file a lot information that I don't need, like "Preliminar View Thumbsvail", plotter settings, printter settings, ESCALELINETYPE styles, and a lot of fields 100, 300, Adbdcdict, etc... only for one POLILINE. Terrible.
I try many, many changes in 'enviroment options', only works to reduce a 50% the 'Deactivate preliminar view'.
I use _.dxfout and I have try all the variants, save as, etc...
The solutions at the moment is build with lisp, with my (dxf_out eName), to create my own DXF with the minimun section posible. Using (dxf_out (entlast))
And i have a little file like...
0
SECTION
0
ENTITIES
0
LWPLOLYLE
bla bla bla
O
ENDSEC
0
EOF
Now the file have only 1KB or minus.
The Sysadmin of the server now loves me.
The problem, now I can't open this DXF file in AutoCAD, it crash, or says 'need more information'.
But the software Lantek for the cutting machine, import de DXF file without problem.
Please, if you have similar problems and use other metod to solve, can you explain the solution.
Thanks
