How to extract coordinates X,Y from points from AUTOCAD (Mac) to excel.

Hi,

I´ve been trying several ways of exporting coordinates from points or objects in AUTOCAD to use in excel, but I´m not able to work in an easy way of data extraction regarding coordinates.

Hopefully someone has the same problem and could just share their workflow.

Thank you in advanced.

If you were to consider third party add-ons, DotSoft's Lisp4CAD is a low cost collection of over 300 native lisp commands for AutoCAD Mac that includes a GenPntExp command. It takes a selection set of objects and writes a CSV file of the X,Y,Z definition points ready to open in Excel.
