Convert DWG and DXF objects into Visio shapes

After you import or open an AutoCAD drawing, you can convert it into shapes that you can manipulate in Visio. Please note that converting to Visio shapes cannot be undone.

1. Click an empty space on the diagram to deselect anything that may be already selected.

2. Rest your cursor on the outside edge of the AutoCAD drawing until your cursor changes to this icon:
   

3. Right-click, and then click CAD Drawing Object > Convert.

4. In the Convert CAD Object dialog box, select the AutoCAD layers you want to convert into Visio shapes.

5. Click Advanced for more options. For example, you can choose to delete the converted layers, convert dimensions into dimension shapes, or convert hatch line patterns into shapes.

When you convert a drawing in DWG or DXF format, you convert the last saved spatial view of the CAD drawing. A CAD drawing may have been saved in model space or paper space:

• Model space    is the primary drawing workspace in which CAD drafters create drawings. When you convert a drawing saved in model space, all objects and text on the layers you select are converted into Visio shapes.

• Paper space    is a workspace that is analogous to a sheet of paper, in which CAD drafters can arrange different views of the drawing.

  The following image shows a DWG drawing saved in paper space.

  

  The drawing contains two rectangular viewports. A viewport is a window into the three-dimensional CAD drawing. Each viewport can be set to a different scale or angle.

  When you convert a drawing saved in paper space, only the objects that are not cut off (clipped) by the edge of the viewport are converted into Visio shapes. Objects and text that are cut off are converted into lines. For example, a circle that is completely enclosed by a viewport is converted into a Visio circle shape. A circle that is clipped by the viewport is converted into a series of lines.

Save a Visio diagram as a DWG or DXF file

1. Click File > Save As.

2. Browse to find the location or folder where you want to save the drawing.

3. In the Save as type list, click the file type you want:

   • AutoCAD Drawing (*.dwg)

   • AutoCAD Interchange (*.dxf)

If your Visio file has more than one drawing page, you must save each page separately.
