Points Export for AutoCAD is a Point Text file export plug-in for AutoCAD®. This plug-in gives AutoCAD powered applications the ability to export point data to text files.
Points Export for AutoCAD reads point objects in an AutoCAD drawing and writes it out to a text file in the XYZ to YXZ format. The point coordinates can be delimited by standard delimiters such as comma, space, tab, semicolon or a custom delimiter. Points Export for AutoCAD can also extract points from other objects such as end points of curves, centers of circles/arcs/ellipses, vertices of polylines, meshes, etc. Apart from writing out a text file containing the point coordinates, Points Export for AutoCAD can even create point objects corresponding to the coordinates in the current drawing.
Points Export for AutoCAD is very easy to use. Once installed, it must be loaded into the AutoCAD environment. There are simple instructions for this in the ReadMe file.
