options to name the exported files, as follows:
Manual. (For exporting the current view only. This option is not available when exporting multiple
views.) Enter a name for the exported file. Revit Architecture automatically combines any Revit or DWG
links during export, and so always creates a single file.
Automatic. This option adds a prefix to the file name of the current view or multiple views and sheets.
Select one of the following options:
Short. Revit Architecture determines the name automatically. The format is:
Revit Sheet: Sheet Name or Revit View: View Type-View Name
Long. Specify a prefix or accept the default, which uses the format:
Revit Sheet/View: Project Name-View Type-View Name
When exporting multiple files, for File Name, enter a common prefix for the exported files. For example, if
you are exporting the Level 1 floor plan and north elevation views to DWG files and you enter the prefix
Country House, the resulting exported file names are Country House Elevation North.dwg and Country
House Floor Plan Level 1.dwg.
