Feb 26, 2019 - This tutorial will show you how to export a Revit file as a dwg, and import it into SketchUp, while preserving groups and layers. Jun 29, 2011 - As an architect living in Indonesia I (and many others) faced one same dreaded problem in my workflow: DWG dependency. I've post list of.
It seems like it would be easy, I mean after all, vectorized images seem like they would convert so easily to a.skp or.dxf even. Isn’t that cute But it’s WRONG!So wrong in fact that it took me some weeks, toiling late nights, trying desperately to figure out how the heck to get this artwork from a friend into sketchup so I could put it on a blasted Mario style coin Like many freelancers and those with friends with seemingly simple requests, I took on this challenge not wanting to spend any money, especially if I’m not getting paid.

So I set off trying to figure out how to put this square peg into a round hole. As it turns out, Sketchup used to be able to do this natively in their free versions, and you will find plenty of videos on how to do that, with menu buttons that are no longer there But since Sketchup 2016 they have since nixed this in the free version. And you won’t find anything in their Extension Wearhouse that will do it for less than $50.
