.dxf file opening issue

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

 

My goal is to export a dxf file by running a procedure in AIMMS. 

I've created a procedure which produces the text which is shown when a dxf file is opened with notepad. 

I've figured out how to do this manually by using notepad, saving it as .dxf, and then opening it in AutoCAD.

However, when I do the same, only by exporting a text file through AIMMS as a dxf file, I have issues opening the file. 

Upon opening a popup window appears, which asks me to press enter. Afterwards, the document is not opened and no error messages appear.

The odd thing is, that if I open the .dxf file with notepad, copy it to another notepad and save it as .dxf file, AutoCAD has no trouble opening the file. 

 

Has anyone a suggestion why AutoCAD is not able to read the first document?

 

Thank you in advance.

If you save them both are they the same size (als je ze beide saved zijn ze dan even groot) ?

 

Because you have these save options (ondat je deze save opties hebt) :

Is this the same on another PC (doet hij dit ook op een andere PC)

 

"exporting a text file through AIMMS as a dxf file" does it close the file (sluit hij de file) ?
