NAME

       v.out.dxf  - Exports vector map to DXF file format.

KEYWORDS

       vector, export, DXF

SYNOPSIS

       v.out.dxf
       v.out.dxf --help
       v.out.dxf  input=name   [layer=string]   output=name  [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]
       [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input vector map
           Or data source for direct OGR access

       layer=string
           Layer number or name (’-1’ for all layers)
           A single vector map  can  be  connected  to  multiple  database  tables.  This  number
           determines  which  table  to  use.  When used with direct OGR access this is the layer
           name.
           Default: -1

       output=name [required]
           Name for DXF output file

DESCRIPTION

       The GRASS program v.out.dxf conversion program generates an ASCII DXF (AutoCAD) file  from
       a  GRASS vector.  The output file is placed in the user’s current working directory unless
       the user specifies a full pathname for the output.

NOTES

       DXF files output by AutoCAD have the suffix .dxf
