Hi everybody!

 
I am looking for a way to generate 2-d views out of a 3-d dxf model.
 
Currently I am choosing the appropriate view in the "viewpoint" menu and redraw the lines, which takes an awful amount of time.
 
Any help is very welcome,
 
Paul

I have to do that ALL the time at my job...it sucks!
I use the 'copy face' command in 2011...or just basically redraw the whole damn thing, which is TOTALLY (yelling there, lol) counter productive. But our only option to really check dims and fitment.
Theres other ways too, just search this forum for 'make 2d views with 3d' or something to that nature.
Good luck!
