        If you import the exported dwg back into SketchUp do you see double lines?

        If NO it could be the importer in your app that's the cause. If YES, then there maybe something in the source SKP file.

        Once you include a secondary app into the mix the likely cause would be harder to detect. Can you reproduce on just a small sample of geometry?

        Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp 📖

            I see you are using Eneroth's Laser Tools. Why not add Eneroth's SVG Exporter to get them into Lightburn.
