Revit imported DWG not showing up on AutoCAD

Hello I need some help.

 

I am trying to import a Revit made floor plan into a DWG on AutoCAD but nothing is showing up. I have two floors, the first floor imports just fine but the second floor does not.

Huh? Import an RVT into AutoCAD?  Describe what you are doing.

Yes I want to import a revit floor plan into a dwg in order to keep the floor plan as vectors instead of as a pdf that makes it into pixels. 

So I go to export, cad formats, and then dwg and save it. But when I try to open the document on AutoCAD or Illustrator, nothing shows up.

Okay, that makes more sense.  RVT=>DWG=>AutoCAD.  Export the Revit Model (from 3D View) to DWG.  

 

..or are you exporting Sheets? or Views?  

 

...are the Revit elements visible in the Export to DWG preview pane?

I am importing two different views, and there is a preview when I do the export option. When I see the file it is only 31 KB big and when it is opened nothing shows up.
