Exporting to .dxf

Brian Rocks

Hey, I have a quick question about exporting a design to .dxf. 

I have a rectangular board outline defined by a rectangle with line width 0.  It looks like perhaps the board outline is not being generated as part of the .dxf because of this?  Is there a way to get around this?

    Is the layer turned on and displayed ? It must be for dxf export. Also make sure it has a dxf layer mapped to it.
