Publisher beta 2.6.0.2831 windows: export to DWG, DXF fail with error or crash

[4dimage]

Hi,

i tested this file, to check the bleed fixes:

beta-2.5.6.2831-bleed-export-fix_1-1.afpub

1) In Publisher
I noticed the errors when exporting to DWG or DXF. The document has a 6mm bleed. All file formats work well with and without the "include bleed" option.

With DWG and DWX, however:
- No preview can be calculated in the export dialog. The spinner doesn't stop.

- If you click on "Export" -> "Save", an error dialog appears at the end:

 

2) In Designer -> slices
If i open the testfile in Designer beta and try to export the main slice as DXF or DWG, Designer crashes completely in 100% cases:

The crash in Designer isn't specific to the file - thanks for the report. 

I'll look into the non-generating preview as well

Hi,

same .afpub test file as above.

In 2.6.0.2861 beta the method file -> export preview/save now work in Publisher and Designer as expected. But Designer still crashes when trying to export via a slice as DWG or DXF.
