Exporting an AutoCAD Drawing

You can export an OpenLNS CT drawing as an AutoCAD drawing. This lets you create an as-built
report in the same format as your other system blueprints. An OpenLNS CT drawing saved in
AutoCAD drawing format can be marked up by AutoCAD tools, but not manipulated as an AutoCAD
object.

To export an OpenLNS CT drawing as an AutoCAD drawing, follow these steps:

1. Save the OpenLNS CT drawing as an AutoCAD drawing (.dwg format).

2. In the Visio Drawing Layer Status dialog, select the layers to export. Click Options to select a

different AutoCAD output file version or OpenLNS CT drawing mapping scheme.

3. OpenLNS CT saves the drawing in AutoCAD format, and you can open the drawing using

AutoCAD software. If your network contains multiple OpenLNS CT drawings, you must export
each drawing as a separate AutoCAD drawing to export the entire network.
