    Your drawing is bigger than your page size

    Hi,

    Your drawing is bigger than your page size. The drawing must always fit on the CorelDRAW page.

    There is a new version of the DXFTool. Get it from http://www.coreldrawtools.com and try that one. If you continue to experience difficulties you can use the contact form on that website or PM me here. I am the author of this tool.

    Unhappy DXF tool can not convert

    James,
    I am very glad to talk with you. I try changing to fit the corel draw page as your advice. It is not still complete.I don't know what am I doing wrong.After I use dxftool,I see it's not smoothcurve on the sheetcam software. It's possible or not if you will test this example with step by step. Pls see the past example from attached dxf file.

    Pls send the completed dxf file after use dxftool to me.


    Sorry if I disturb you
    Sadheer

    Hi Sadheer,

    No disturbance! Support is a part of this business.

    I have sent you a PM. I need to see your CDR file.

    The quality of the results depends on the quality of the artwork. If it is autotraced and has a high node count I can't fix it. The DXFTool does not do curve fitting, it just finds ARC segments in the bezier curves and makes a high quality DXF file that most CAM systems use very well.

    Hi,

    Where did you get this artwork? If you zoom in on it you will see it is already a series of lines. The DXFTool cannot improve on that.

    A native CorfelDRAW drawing will be smooth curves to begin with. The DXFTool will convert as many of these as possible to arcs. This drawing is all line segments so that is reflected in the DXF export.
