Information about the lengths of various types of entities in the drawing.- Edit description of drawing
A description of the drawing. This description also appears in the File Open dialog. Change the description from this dialog by typing in a new description, or by making changes to the existing one. This description shows up in the “comments” section of the OMX files generated, which can be read inside of MAKE once the path is loaded by clicking the “Notes and Comments” tab in MAKE.
If you intend to open the DXF file in other CAD systems, you may wish to keep the drawing description below 255 characters. This will ensure maximum compatibility for the rare instances where a 3rd party CAD system may impose this limit.
