Is there a way to purge AutoCad files while exporting to AutoCad from Revit. Looks like I'll have to open all the dwg files and purge them individually otherwise. Randy

From you HELP

 

When you export a 2D view to a DWG file, lines are treated as follows:

 

  • If 2 lines overlap in the drawing, the thicker of the lines is retained. The thinner line is shortened or removed.
  • If a thick line is shorter than a thin line and its start point and endpoint fall within the thin line, no action occurs.
  • If 2 collinear lines with the same visual parameters overlap, they are merged into one.
  • When walls become lines in the DWG file, no short collinear lines are produced
