Hello,
I use Qcad v 3.21.3 installed on a Linux Server.
I have a dwg file I created in Autocad and there is a file attached to it (as an external reference).
When I use dwg2pdf to convert the dwg file, the attached files are not displayed/converted on the pdf.
Example :
Here is the command I use : dwg2pdf -platform offscreen -a -fs -f -l -o <pdfFileName> <dwgFileName>
Am I doing something wrong ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Re: dwg2pdf does not display attached files.
External references (XRefs) are not supported at this point.

Ok, thank you for your answer.
Will the feature be added eventually ?

Not in the near future (<3 months). Longer term this is on our radar, yes.

Qcad is a great tool, keep up the good work.
Do you know if there is an alternative CLI tool I could use today to render XRefs ?
