I'm exporting out an as-built for a golf course hole and my architect complains that my polygons with unique symbology are turning into polylines with identical symbology. I don't have CAD to test this internally and I don't know if what my architect is seeing is "normal" or if I could do more to make it look clear.

What I want to carry over:

  • Labels on points
  • Points as points
    • Not lines
  • Polygons as polygons
    • Not lines
  • Symbology
    • including unique  symbology for feature classes
  • The table holding other feature class fields like pipe material

Other users with similar but different issues:

I'm worried I did something wrong and there's egg on my face. Also worried that using ArcGIS may be seen by my collages as a mistake.

Attachments: What my architect sees when importing my data, what I see in Pro, and the export to cad menu with the input feature I've selected showing areas, not lines.
