AI to DFX

I'm using AI 24.0 on windows 10/64b . I'm drawing in AI and need to convert it to DFX or DWG files for CNC laser cutting. When I'm exporting AI files to DFX/DWG files, I'm getting double lines(or even triple lines...), and I need to manually "clear" the unnecessary lines, export again , check and clear again ...and so on ..

Some times I'm getting diferent size in the DFX/DWG files.

It's take lot of time,  so I'll appreciate any assistance to solve this issue.

Remove the stroke and any appearance settings before exporting to DXF. Export the paths only.

The additional lines you are seeing is expanding the stroke, fill, and path into separate vectors. There is no way to fix this post.
