I have an input DWG file and I need to make some changes to some layers and write these layers to an empty output file, but with the name of the predefined layers. A good example would be to say that the data in my input file will fill an empty output DWG, this DWG file has only the layers and their names, there is no geometry.

 

How can I do this?

 

Thank´s

Did you try to use the option Layer Definition = Import from Dataset ?

When I insert a Writer format DWG and you import the schema from a external file:
