In LDD, is it possible to export to DXF or another similar format (DWG)? I have a copy of Vectorworks renderworks, and would like to be able to render LDD models in that way.

The only way I've found is to export it into an LDraw prog like MLCAD and convert it from there from the various conversion programs online. I used to get it into Lightwave and 3dsMax. You will find the "how to" in the pinned threads at the top.

The XML file for converting can be found here

Its not perfect though so you will need to rotate some parts after the conversion.

I just did something like this last night. LDD to LDR then from there you have two options. First look up meshlab, google it, you can export .stl or .obj from clad, open in mesh lab, export from mesh lab to .obj, or .dxf, these become HUGE files, if you have Maya you can also do the same process, or blender. I am trying things to work with Solidworks..like I said I just started this last night and still working things out.
