Should this program be added to the qcad package in Debian? (or packaged separately)
Are cxf fonts used anywhere other than QCAD? If not putting it in with the program seems sensible to save people having to work out how to build and install it.

mikejd - what system are you printing from (windows, Debian, Ubuntu)? what version of Qcad, what printing system (e.g. cups)? I've found that printing to ps or PDF works fine so long as I set a non-zero line width to avoid incredibly faint lines. Using a PDF printer has produced the most useful resu...

OK, glad to hear that there is progress on this as not having DWG access is pretty limiting these days, as I'm sure you are aware. However the Open Design Alliance libraries are not freely redistributable, (unless the licencing has changed recently), nor are the libraries themselves available for do...

The problem with dwg2dxf is that it needs the non-free OpenDWG library which you need to buy from OpenDWG. Reading DWG files has been declared a high-priority GNU project and a library called libreDWG is coming along nicely. This library can already turn quite complex DWG files into SVGs, and seems ...

OK thanks for that clue - that is most helpful. I have had terrible trouble with this. Especially as I don't see how to easily determine which of several lines on top of each other one has selected. In a moderately complicated drawing hatching gets to be almost impossible. It's fine to hatch a singl...
