how do you keep the original colour of my dxf file when I want to conver it into a 3D pdf or a .obj file?

It converts them all in grey.

Thanks,

Hi @beamoao

 

I'm not sure there is a way to keep the original colour... However I use the transformer 'AppearanceSetter' to set colours to objects. The dxf layer should be added through the 'Geometry' slot of the transformer.

 

You can set Diffuse, Ambient and Specular colours under the 'Color Parameters' tab.

You will need to make one transformer per colour tough.
