White Fills in DXF

Keep, outline or remove white fills
Default: Remove

PDF supports the overlay of objects. This is not the case in DXF, where such filled shapes always render white and on top of any other objects that share any of the same coordinates. This unfortunately blocks other objects from view. In addition, some systems, such as a CNC cutter, may not be able to use artwork that is delivered using filled shapes.
In these cases, pdf2cad can be set to:

Keep filled objects so that they are produced in the DXF output

Remove filled objects completely from the DXF output

Outline any filled objects so that the object renders in the DXF without a fill
