Notes
  • A .lin file containing all system linestyles and the associated .shx file is installed in ..\Program Files\LISTECH\Neo\Release\Data\ .
  • Use this command only when you need to export non-system linestyles.
  • Simple one dimensional linestyles (solid, dotted, dashed or dashdot) or linestyles with symbols between dashes, can be exported successfully.
  • If linestyles contain symbols, a .shp file with the same name is exported with the .lin file. You should complile this file in AutoCAD, then use the compiled .shx file when loading linetypes into AutoCAD.
Possible errors
Possible Error Description
'Linestyle name' is not supported by the export format. Some linestyles with a second dimension cannot be exported. You should use the Neo.lin file installed with the application and the accompanying shx file to load system linestyles into AutoCAD. For non-system linestyles, you will need the original AutoCAD.lin and .shx file for the linestyle.
