Hatch disappears in JPG format

Anonymous
Not applicable

When I add colour to an object using hatch, it works perfectly when saved as a .dxf. However, when I go to convert that same .dxf to a .jpg, any hatched areas disappear and no colour is visible within these areas.AC-gamma-colour.jpgScreenshot (229).png

Why DXF to JPEG: why not DWG to JPEG after you DWG to DXF?
How are you converting DXF to JPEG? What are the JPEG setting in that driver?
What are the hatches details/colors?

DWG is not a recognized file type on the converter to JPG (unless you know of a way to convert to JPG within autoCAD itself?! I don't, I'm fairly new). I'm using the conversion software that my professor gave me, I don't know what the various settings are. The hatches/colours are the various tones of grey within the circles that you can see on the screenshot within autoCAD (the grey background image)

So you use a 3rd party converter: you'll need to ask them what's wrong with that tool.

In AutoCAD you can create JPEGs all day long from your original DWG, not need to do all of what you've tried https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/AutoC...
