If the model lines in the family are intended for graphic representation of say a door swing, it can be exported to IFC best if:
Edit: Model lines do export to IFC format in 2D view but for some reason they sometimes snap out of position when exported with "Export 2D plan view elements" is checked...therefore, the above conversion
