Convert 3D surface to 2D surface

I tried to use the Flatten command in AutoCad but the area is not the same.
To flatten such spatially curved surfaces, the material must be partially stretched and/or compressed. So you will never get exactly the same surface area after flattening.

i found that i can do this in Inventor, i tried and i had no result. How can i do it?
To demonstrate the flattening in Inventor I imported your solid (there is only one in the dwg) into Inventor and ran the unwrap command. The different colors on the flat part indicate where the material had to be stretched or compressed.
But since you wrote in the other thread that you want/need to use AutoCAD, we don't need to go deeper into that here.

Can you do me ...
Before I ask why you don't do it yourself and what are your problems (I guess that should be discussed in the Inventor forum) - attached my result (Inventor 2020 files).
(I flattened only the 4 curved surfaces, the other lofted surfaces and of course the regions too are flat already).
