Exporting TechDraw page as pdf or svg?

[Parth]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to exprot a TechDraw page as an SVG or PDF file. No success yet. Can anyone help me in doing it with Python? I'll be running my script in CLI, no gui module loaded.

thanks a lot!

this is for getting information from techdraw:

and this two links for converting the lines and dimensions to pdf:

Hello ebrahim raeyat,
thanks for the help.
I checked the links and they refer to dxfs. I'm trying to get SVG.

I tried to export DXF using GUI and it wasn't accurate, some dimensions were moved. I exported SVG with GUI and worked really well. So I believe, SVG export is more stable than dxf export.

I want to do that using CLI and python console without loading GUI. Do you have any references that can help me with that?

Thanks,
Parth
