Can I do a list-based batch conversion with CADConvert?

Yes. In order to automatically convert several files within a list: 1. Create a new directory, then copy into it all files to be converted. In this example, we have created a directory called sheet_dir on our E: drive. It contains a number of AutoCAD sheets in DXF format. 2. To automatically create a list of these files, open a console window (DOS box) and enter the following text: dir /s /b E:\sheet_dir\*.dxf > E:\sheet_dir\list.txt Please note: The list is created as a text file, in this case called list.txt, in the new directory, sheet_dir, which we created on our E: drive and contains all files ending in .dxf. You may need to change these variables to suit your specific situation. In this example, the list conversion macro convert_dxfmed.mac was created in the directory E:\userproj. It looks like this: @e- dxfmed ——————– direction of conversion @e- modin dxf —————– input format @e- modout med —————- output format @e- reset E:\medusa\CADConvert\cfg\
