Export Layout to Model Space (32 bit) new

Description:
This Autodesk Preview Tool will export your AutoCAD/LT 2008 based layouts to model space.
The AutoCAD/LT 2008 Export Layout to Model Space preview tool provides the capability to take a snapshot of a drawing layout to create a ready-to-use model space drawing. With the capability to export layout objects to model space, customers who have limited their use of layouts in order to exchange drawings with other CAD systems will be able to fully realize the benefits of AutoCAD 2008 annotation scaling, layers per viewport, and other enhanced layout features.

Note: The Export Layout to Model Space preview tool will expire on September 23, 2009.

Please read overview and limitations before using this software.

The unsupported utility provided is experimental in nature. It has not been tested in any manner, and Autodesk does not represent that they are reliable, accurate, complete, or otherwise valid. Accordingly, the utility is provided “as is” with no warranty of any kind and you use at your own risk. Autodesk expressly disclaims any warranty, express or implied, regarding the utility, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. Some states do not allow the exclusion of warranty, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.

Ellipses and elliptical arcs are rendered as high-resolution, curve-fit polylines with up to 64 exact vertices and tangents.

Preserves color, layer, linetype, linetype scale, plot style, lineweight, thickness, elevation, global width, and justification properties. Preserves circular, quadratic, and cubic fitting. Preserves vertex bulge, segment width, and vertex tangent.
