How to import hatch from autocad to revit?

[daniel.carreiro]

I need to create the following legend in revit:

however revit doesn't have most hatches that i need. how to I save each of these hatches as .pat files?

If you created those hatches in AutoCAD, you should have access to the PAT file(s) that created them.  They may be one of the hatches definied in ACAD.pat or ACADISO.pat or they may be defined in a separate PAT file for just that pattern.

Run this Autolisp  from Tee Square Graphics to extract each hatch pattern to a PAT file or go direct to Revit  which will work where Autolisp is unavailable..

you can try this, in your revit file > import you autocad file hatch > then explode > now go to annotate > filled region > create your boundary > go to properties > edit type > fill pattern > and look for your hatch name. (you just import and explode) and see if helps. thanks

This post in the revit forum makes a lot of sense as an easy way to import numerous hatch patterns in a legend.
