Importing
GMS can import DWG or DXF files via the File|Open command. If there is already CAD data in memory, GMS will replace the existing data with the data being imported. Currently, GMS cannot merge the incoming data with the data in memory.
Exporting
GMS data can be exported to a DWG or DXF file that can then be read into a CAD package. If there is CAD data in memory when a GMS project is saved, GMS creates a new DWG file from the CAD data. The file is put in the same folder with the other project files and named using the project prefix.
Any CAD data in memory can be exported by right-clicking the CAD folder in the Project Explorer and selecting the Export command. The DWG/DXF Filename dialog will appear, and you can select either the DWG of DXF file types to save the CAD data. GMS objects must first be converted to CAD data before CAD data can be exported. To convert GMS data to CAD data, use the Convert To CAD command in the Display Menu.
CAD Properties
The CAD Properties dialog displays a number of data about the CAD file such as: extents in xy, path, and file version.
