How do I convert a vector of vertex coordinates and a list of edges to a DXF file?

7 views (last 30 days)
I have a program that displays a design in a UI and outputs two vectors. One is a list of the XY coordinates of vertices and the other is a list of the edges connecting them. I have a program that converts simple X,Y,and Z values of a single curve to a DXF file, but I'm not sure how to convert my design that has multiple curves that are not connected to a DXF file.
Thanks!

The program you mention can only convert one curve to a DXF file. Is it able to convert to a ascii DXF file? If that is the case, simply use the program for each of those curves and merge the files into one. As far as I can tell, you only need to remove EOF of each file and put them together in Matlab. It all depends on if it is binary or ascii DXF. See DXF reference for its syntax.
Can you please upload two DXF files that you wish to merge, then I can take a look.
