Exporting from Sketchup

Depending of what formats is accepted by this prog?
And if you have a free or Pro version of SU

I am using the free versions of Sketchup..
chief architect supports both .dwg and .dxf file types..

Hi Matthew, with SU free you can't export in those formats. Only with Pro version it's possible both in 2D and 3D.

The exporters are available for a limited time.

ahhh yes ive just found that out..
is there a way to convert a .skp file to a .dwg maybe?
or a plug-in of some sort?

massimo · 13 Oct 2009, 14:37

Hmmm, aren't them importers and not exporters, Jim?

Lee-Enfield · 13 Oct 2009, 14:39

does that plugin both import AND export?

(i see someone already asked)

huh? what? I guess it is.

But I thought there was a dxf exporter free somewhere...

Use the free Double CAd XT as go-between who allows you to load SKP files and export DWG or DXF (some versions so choose the year of your prog)
Does it not marvelous?

thanks everyone for the feedback.
