How To Make DXF All Depths?

I have attached a file of a solid model I have.    One of the machinists needs a dxf of the front and back.   What is the easiest way to do this?   I can do it on one "plane" but then it doesn't show the counterbores that are at different depths.   How do I save a dxf that shows all the geometry at all depths?  Thank you!

If you right click on model, you can change appearance to glass so you can see all edges from any view, then use project and save as DXF file.

Thank you,  but the example your download is not getting everything yet.....it's missing some holes and getting partials of others.    How do I get everything?   Appreciate your help.

All counter bores are on back side so if you make all edges visible you have to sort out hole chamfers from other side, probably better idea to leave appearance as is and display model with hidden edges then project only back side.

If you are missing something, pick individual items until you get all you need included, then save as DXF.
