We are using Solidworks 2009 sp 5.1 and have this problem for months and months. Our document control requires us to convert Solidworks drawings to Autocad when they are released. The problem is the title in the Solidworks drawings disappear every time we convert. Title will not only be removed from the Solidworks drawing but it is not converted to the Autocad drawing either. In the File Properties "Description" is being erased, our title is being filled in with $PRP:"Description". We have PDME and this problem occurs both in and out of the vault. We have played with the export options we have changed Autocad export versions, Fonts, Multiple sheet drawing export, and Scale output all to no avail. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it happening in the newer versions of Solidworks also? Is this finally going to be the nail in the coffin to get our IT group to actually install 2011?
Jack,
Is there an incompatibility issue between the version of Solidworks
and Autocad? Are you saving out the Solidworks drawing to the proper
version of Autocad. I know you have experimented with the fonts,
but maybe this coupled with font imcompatibility is a joint effort
causing the issue.
Just a thought.
