I've drawn out alot of contour lines in Illustrator - about 40 layers.

When I export to dwg and open it in 3ds max I get problems - so back to illustrator to try to fix errors!¬

In particular I see these circles???

And when I try to make it into a shape it says they are not included

Really grateful for any ideas here!!

How are the objects filled and/or stroked that you're trying to export? The example images look like the objects are stroked and have no fill. I don't use Studio 3D Max, but some sign-making applications that use CAD-like arc/line or polyline methods seem to do a better job importing shapes in DXF or DWG files if the objects are given a solid fill and no line stroke.

The circles are the corner widgets. As for everything else, please show the result in 3DS Max for comparison

lots of thanks for you reply - I'm trying to make a solid object for 3d printing and my problem is that some of the vectors are not exporting to dwg - hope these screen shots help here

Is there any other possible exchange file format for getting that stuff into 3ds Max?

Like EPS3 or SVG?

Are these closed paths?

Anything special about them?
