I need some help here...
I am working with a group who is exporting their solidWorks 2003 drawing files to DXF for input into Espri for Wire EDM. The problem is that SolidWorks DXF output converts the model curves to polylines with large facets (even with the accuracy at maximum). The wire EDM parts that are made from the DXF files have facets!!!
What do I do? Is there a utility that will convert the polylines to splines or arcs in the DXF file? Do I print to PDF and convert the PDF to DXF? What process will give me curves with smooth curve output?
Thanks for your help.
