#DXF help
I am currently in the process of writing a DXF file converter. The
converter is converting the DXF input to a proprietary file format.
I have run into some problems. I am not precisely clear on how ellipitical
shapes are handled by the DXF file format. My only significant source of
information on the DXF format is a file which I downloaded from Compuserve.
I have been producing DXF files with CorelDRAW! and it writes out ellipses
as a CIRCLE entity with a value for the x-radius and y-radius. The format
is as follows:
10, 20, ( centre), 41, ( xradius) 42 (yradius)
Is this the correct way to handle ellipses?
Any help in confirming what the format is would be most appreciated.
One last question: is there a more detailed source of information on the
DXF file format?
This is not my account; it is my boss's ( just for clarity)
