i asked yesterday about exporting a hi-res image (wireframe for my current project) and got 1 response who suggested making a 1 frame movie (thanx!)... that seems to work okay for getting the image to Photoshop. but i'm playing with my layout in FreeHand and Illustrator (both vector programs) and wondering if there's a way to export to them directly from Poser -- as objects. (i tried dropping the movie frame into Photoshop, then tracing in Adobe Streamline. the lines are not as crisp as an object. so i tried exporting from Poser as a .DXF file. which comes into Illustrator as a perfectly intact wireframe -- except that the figure is turned 180 degrees. my main camera is set to her back. when i open the DXF file in Illustrator i see her from. i can't figure out a way to flip the .DXF as a 3D image in Illustrator. so my question is: how to preserve the camera angle in a DXF file?

I don't think you can preserve the camera angle, so you'll have to rotate in accordance with the export degree of rotation. So if the DFX is exported 90 degrees shifted on the Y axis... Rotate your model to -90 on the Y and then export. This may or may not be the corect numerical data... but ya get the idea... Hope this helps
