1、Designation: D 6673 04Standard Practice forSewn Products Pattern Data InterchangeData Format1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6673; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This standard is designed to facilitate communicationbetween CAD/CAM systems that represent two-dimensionalflat pattern pieces. This st

3、andard also provides conventions forrepresenting related information such as grade rule tables. Thisstandard is not intended to represent the relationships betweenpattern pieces or the correspondence between 2D or 3D sewnproduct pattern piece geometries.1.2 The file format for the pattern data excha

4、nge file definedby this standard (Practice D 6673) complies with the DrawingInterchange File (DXF) format. Autodesk, Inc. developed theDXF format for transferring data between their AutoCAD(r)product and other software applications. This standard docu-ments the manner in which pattern data should be

5、 representedwithin the DXF format. Users of this standard should haveAutodesk, Inc.s documentation on Drawing Interchange Files,found in the AutoCAD Reference Manual, in order to assurecompatibility to all DXF format specifications. The AutoCADVersion 13 DXF specification is to be used. The file for

Summary of Practice4.1 Pattern Piece Transfer File FormatThe file formatdefined by this standard complies with the DXF format.ADXFfile is a specially formatted ASCII text file. It consists of anoptional header as well as tables, blocks and entities sections.The t

31、ables section allows for user-defined functional layeringof a CAD drawing. Using this provision, this standard orga-nizes the CAD data representing a pattern piece into a numberof layers.This standard currently can incorporate the following patternpiece information:annotation (plotted) text;alternat

32、e grade reference line(s);cut line;drill holes;graded nests;grade reference line;grade rule identifiers;grade rule table name;grainline;internal cutouts;internal lines;mirror line;notches;piece boundary, including turn points and curve points;plaid reference lines;D6673042sew lines;stripe reference

33、lines;style information: style name; creation date and time,author, sample size, grade rule table name, units,standard version.piece information: piece name, quantity, category, ro-tation, flip, tilt, fold.4.2 HeaderAn optional header may precede the informa-tion in the file defined by this standard

34、. However, becausemany CAD programs on the market today are unable togenerate or accept a header, it is recommended that the use ofthe optional header be minimized.4.3 LayersThe ASTM D13 proposed standard utilizes alayered file format. Information contained in the file defined bythis standard is sep

35、arated into distinct layers, each layerproviding a specific type of information. Layer numbers areused to identify each layer and indicate which information isfound in the layer.Numbers are used, rather that text, since many programs thatsupport the DXF format are unable to generate or acceptnon-num

36、eric layer designations. Layer 1 is required. Informa-tion about each layer is described in 4.3.1 through 4.3.15.The following four restrictions are placed on layer informa-tion:(1) On Layer 1 the piece boundary line will be represented asone or more polylines that form a closed polygon.(2) Layer 2

37、will contain all the turn points in the piece asfound on layers 1, 8, 11, and 14.(3) Layer 3 will contain all the curve points in the piece asfound on layers 1, 8, 11, and 14.(4) Layers 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 and 13 cannot contain polylines.The following list for layer numbers are provided:Layer 1 piece bou

Aseparate BLOCK is used for each piece. Within each BLOCKare one or more polylines that constitute the piece boundary.Each polyline within

41、 the BLOCK corresponds to an individualpattern element.The Piece Boundary BLOCK includes Turn Points, CurvePoints, Notch Base Points, Grade Points and Mirror LinePoints. The piece boundary is a continuous, closed line, withpoints ordered in either the clockwise or counter clockwisedirection. This la

45、und-ary, this layer contains information referred to as required stylesystem text. It only occurs once on this layer in ENTITIES andis assumed to be valid for all pieces in the DXF file.Style information is known as system text. This text standsin contrast to annotation text, which is plotted out an

46、d isdefined as Layer 15 in the DXF file. System text is informationabout the style and/or pieces in the DXF file.The correct syntax for system text is the system textidentifier followed directly by a colon (:) character followeddirectly by a string of text representing the actual value of theidentif

47、ier. Identifiers can be formed from upper or lower casecharacters but must appear as specified in this standard. Thevalue of the identifier is case sensitive and can includecharacters from the following ASCII 7-bit character subset,including the space character ( ) as well:! 9 #$%?ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR

48、STUVWXYZ_8abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz|In some cases, the values of identifiers must have a specificformat or value.To avoid a loss of information, all values of identifiers mustappear in the DXF file as they appeared in the exporting CADsystem.
