Exportkml not working for text

Hi everyone 

I'm facing issue while exporting my dwg file contains alignment and labels to kml.

My alignment line is exporting properly, but labels are not exporting as it is in my drawing file even I tried to export after converting my civil3D file to Autocad file as well.

Please some one help me to get out from this issue.

Thank you

Without a file, it will be difficult to troubleshoot your issue.

 

However, as a quick note, I would be sure you are selecting "Export Text" on the "Objects" section of the "ExportKML" dialogue box.

@pnagendra081, ok, I see now that the issue is that the style is not exporting correctly...

I can't be sure, but the label style, exported, and showing up exactly as in Civil3D, feels like a bit of a stretch for the capabilities of Google Earth (*all hail the AI overlords).

 

Maybe someone else can correct me there.

Civil3D's ExportKML command is exporting the Station Labels as KML Placemarks, which (while useful) do not faithfully reproduce the appearance in the drawing.  It's true there are some limitations of GE.  However, with the right tools, there are often ways of getting around limitations.
