Expires: 1 Sept 1990 References: Sender: elmore@hao.ucar.edu Reply-To: elmore@hao.ucar.edu (David Elmore) Followup-To: Distribution: usa Organization: High Altitude Observatory/NCAR, Boulder CO Keywords: DXF AutoCAD My desire is to be able to create sketches in MacDraw and send them to someone on a SPARC station (via MacFTP) who will turn them into AutoCAD drawings. Somewhere along the line PICT needs to be translated to DXF. It would be nice to go from AutoCAD to MacDraw as well. I would appreciate any clues E-Mailed to me.

Claris sells a Filters product called Claris Graphics Translator. It costs about $250 and translates to and from the following formats. Claris Cad MacDraw II PICT DXF versions 9 and 10 IGES versions 3 and 4 It's expensive but extremely powerful. It allows you to not only filter one file at a time but also set up a batch process that filters files all at once at some specified future time. For some of the formats (the mac ones), it allows you to select individual objects in them and just filter those objects. Craig Yappert Frame Technology Corporation cby@frame.com (408)433-3311
