One great hack in this option is in Colours tab in export settings. Check the box to preserve Revit colours. It will export revit drawing exactly in the same colours/thickness as in original PDF file that would be produced in Revit and !!! it can be exported to print in CAD without adding any plot style. It will have exact the same colours, hatching and lines when in paper space in CAD and can be checked in print preview option. This is very important as the whole programming/copying colouring would not be necessary in most cases, as the colour code important in CAD just so it works with specified plot style for printing. When you don’t need plot style, colour re-coding is also not needed. Also handy to uncheck the box to make sure all attached files in revit drawings are all embedded in the exported dwg file and not exported as X-ref files unless they need to be separate. In practice if office works in Revit they normally have most of the project work in Revit and the only times they need CAD files is for external consultants who might not have Revit and in most cases it is only for their references. So this specific colour coding might be useless as all offices have their own colour coding and plot styles.

I think you should show how to do this in a real-world scenario, something that can be repeatable and loadable from a TXT file. For example, if a mechanical company gets a model from an architect and needs to export it to AutoCAD. They can have their layer standard created in a text file and load it to any outside company model. This way they don’t have to go down one by one renaming layers and overlooking something. Great topic BTW!

Nice presentation and thx for balkan arch your video I always watching from last 6 years gives me good knowledge

Excellent

Thanks!

This is my personal view, not from the Studio: Someone at Autodesk was having too much fun when programming Revit... It is diabolic and even more when you realize both Autocad and Revit come from the same organization.

Thank you for the tutorial. Is there a way to merge multiple sheets in a single CAD file? I need this file to contain the view information so im able to actually make changes on it, but I also need to display the drawing in a titleblock in CAD, as its displayed in a revit sheet. Can't find a way around it.

thanks

very usefull

Hey Balkan and fellow viewers, I created a 'File Name' parameter in my titleblock; it has project number, sheet number etc with a suffix '.PDF'. Is there a way to copy the value of this parameter on my clipboard so I could paste it to my pdf sheets file name when I want to save them?

Thanks a lot for this useful tutorial :) Is there any way I can export them to AutoCAD asa line rather than Polyface mesh?

Hi Balkan, please do a tutorial for revit 24 plug-ins eg Rev to NVW and fabrication family,

Hi Balkan , how to see plan in level by level and 3d in mobile

I have a question please, after export, annotation symbols break into lines and text while I want each annotation symbol to be a block after export , can you help me ? Thanks,

Thank you , very nice, but there must be some loadable text file for repeating export to AutoCAD from several RVT files .... Thanks once again ...

hi can we export the Revit Site Plan in cad format along with the Same coordinates please reply on this thank you

How to export revit space boundaries? Thanks!

There isnt any answer from the author. Thanks for the video tho. Can anyone tell me if y can define that all the hatches will be gray in autocad?. Or if all my texts will not have a background mask?, couldnt manage to find out. Thank you.

So, the only answer is to do it by hand, rename it, and type in everything. What is the point of exporting from AutoCAD to a .txt file?

Hi Balkan, can we export revit to dgn file?

Plz make your all video in less than 5 minutes

do you know how to import CTB from AutoCad to Revit? I can not seem to make it work

i have read somewehere online that the ctb should be exported to txt file first before importing to revit. havent done it yet though

How to export 3d in cad

Choose a 3d view and export. But pay attention to the Solid/Polyface mesh export. I Prefer it to be solid elements (better for subtracting/adding)

Surely this is not pro tips & we have more problems while RVT to CAD than Re-assigning Standard Layers.
