Introduction

Lot of customers want to create their symbol library in 3DEXP from DXF or DWG library / Schema

This ensure tha tthe symbol will respect the same size and convension like it was intheir previous legacy schematic software

In 3DExp you can import DXF/DWG and convert it into CATIA Drawing then 

• you can copy/past the geometry in 2D component that can be reuse to define Symbol shape.
• If DXF/ DWG contains "symbol Block" they will be automaticaly converted into drafting 2D Component 

following video ilsustrate the full scenario base and different usecases
