Thank you all who have answered my question. I have exported as a basic AutoCAD rather than Architecture drawing and it worked !

Assuming you're using Architecture 2017, I suspect issue is with AEC / Proxy Objects.
If so, you can either:
Remove the proxy objects before forwarding the dwg.
Or she can (as mentioned above) open them with DWG TrueView.]]> Fri, 17 Nov 2017 17:04:33 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=12531&PID=35323&title=doors-showing-as-squares#35323 <![CDATA[Doors showing as squares : Doesn&#039;t ring a bell.

Doesn't ring a bell.  She could always try DWG TrueView.]]> Fri, 17 Nov 2017 12:51:13 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=12531&PID=35322&title=doors-showing-as-squares#35322 <![CDATA[Doors showing as squares : It’s ‘AutoDWG DWGSee...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=12531&PID=35321&title=doors-showing-as-squares#35321 Author: dmleach

It’s ‘AutoDWG DWGSee Pro 2017’

Likely Cloud Based

Thank you for replying John. I am trying to find that out. She has never had a problem with past drawings......

I am at a loss to know what to do. I'll try anything ! :)

Hello All,
 
Please can you help me urgently !?!?! :) I have a client who has requested a DWG from me. She has a viewing software. When looking at the drawing the doors (in paper space) show as squares. Can anyone please help with resolving this ? She might not keep her cool much longer !
 
Thanks.
 
Deborah
