Good morning all - 

I am trying to export a plan to DWG for a consultant, but when I do the export, the symbols do not show up.  This one drawing in particular is to have the Plumbing symbols, for example.

 

All that show up are the circles with cross lines. 

 

Is there a setting that I could try to change this?  Is there something about the symbols I need to change?

 

Thank you in advance!

Check the layers in AutoCad for visibility and make sure they are turned on.  I've run into that issue in the past
