D 9.3 Export to a file

→ Display → Export → To file...,
→ Specify file type: Freelance 2000 metafile or Bitmap file
→ Enter filename and path → OK.
Individual graphic displays can be exchanged between different projects via files. A file is
created with Export. After invoking Export a window is opened in which the filename and path
should be entered. A choice of export data type between the Freelance 2000 readable file
format with extension "DMF" and a bitmap file with extension "BMP" can be made.

D 9.4 Export to clipboard as a bitmap

→ Display → Export → As bitmap to clipboard,
The graphic display is saved on the Windows clipboard as a bitmap, and is thus available for
further processing by other Windows applications.
If graphic objects are selected, these are saved as a bitmap; if no object is selected the
complete graphic display is saved.

D 9.5 Import

→ Display → Import,
→ Enter path and filename with extension, .DMF or .DXF
→ OK, graphic display is loaded.
To import a Freelance 2000 graphic file (extension .DMF) created under Export or a file created
in AutoCAD (extension .DXF) into a project, Import must be selected. After selection, a window
is opened, where the path must be entered and the filename entered or selected. The
corresponding graphic display is loaded and shown.
An import file can be imported only into a blank graphic display.
