no tolls exist so far Aug 18, 2004

Unfortunately it seems there are no tools like that
Out programmer has developed a beta version of such a tool but it is not yet stable enough. We are working on it and I hope it can be released in autumn

Exporting yes, importing unfortunately not Aug 18, 2004

If you open your Autocad drawing in Adobe Illustrator, you can easily export the text into a text file by selecting all. (And then use a CAT tool for example to avoid inconsistency in duplicates) Unfortunately you will have to manually put the translation back in but it's a fairly straight forward process... Double clicking on the text does the job.

Thanks to all of you. I've found a plug-in Aug 18, 2004

I've found a plug-in called Trans.vlx on http://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/qaID.asp?tip=2280 to import and export the text. It works very good.

Find a HowTo to this under Howtos Aug 27, 2004

I also used this plugin and found it very helpful. It works great. I've posted how to instructions in the Howtos section about this. Maybe someone finds a better way to implement the use of this tool. I'd appreciate any improvement.

Best regards,

Tobi

Hi Tobi,

Recently I've been doing quite a bit of translating in Autocad and I would like very much to read your Howto about the use of the plug-in. However, I can't seem to find it on the Howtos page. What heading is it under?

Thanks,
sindee
