Sketch points within sketch not appearing when saving part as .dxf file (need to etch/scribe centerpoints on steel when burning on machine)

Hello All,

Not sure if this is not possible in SW or if it is and I'm not aware of an option.  I need to scribe centerpoints so our shop has location markers to shoot anchor studs onto steel plates (in liew of laying out by hand).  In Autocad, I was able to mark points on the drawing, and then have the points automatically appear on the dxf file when exported and in turn be able to be etched/scribed on the steel (programmed thru the cnc software) while it is being cut.  In SW, I have the sketch points marked on the sketch, and the plate is extruded.  When I save the part as a dxf file, the outer perimeter shows up fine in the file, but the internal points do not (I see nothing on this forum or online of any solution but I though I remember reading somewhere that only the outer perimeter is exported).  I need these points to be exported as well as the outer perimeter lines.  I had the sketch as "visible/show" but I doubt that has any bearing (didn't work either).  Please see my screenshot and part attachments.  Thanks!
