Thank you for your reply, John.
I tried some things with the Custom Symbols and it works nice. However these symbols cannot be created in TcX managed NX. I have to create them in native and afterwords I can select them in TcX manNX.
Next problem: we use UPM and the UPM has an option to replace...
We have made several drawingtemplates in NX5.0.4. We are working a lot for customers that demand that the drawings we deliver are based on their own drawingformat.
So we created for all our customers their own templates. We have putted the drawing border, titleblock and revisionblock in separate...

Not an option. The exported file is not a flatten 2D-drawing.

NX5.0.1.4 MP04 and NX5.0.2.2 MP02, both Tc integrated. CAM-software is PEPS.

I am working with the 2D Exchange translator to export DXF-files. Everything works fine, except for the text fonts. Our CAM-software does not display the text.
I have found the Character Font Mapping that should map the fonts from the used NX-font to an ACAD-font, but I cannot get it to work...
