I am having a problem when exporting to DWG from LayOut: my grouped labels and dimensions turn up far away from where they are in the LayOut file.
I am attaching my export settings, the DWG file and the link to download the LayOut file. I hope someone can help me solve this enigma.

So far I’ve just done the first sheet. This is what AutoDesk TrueView shows.
Can you show what you are seeing? Maybe it’s the viewer?
BTW, I did a little simple cleanup of your model. Mainly fixed incorrect tag usage (just a few edges were tagged) and purged unused content.
I doubt that this file bloat has anything to do with the export you are getting but it certainly isn’t helping the situation.
Does the export look any different with this file?

What do you mean by “only a few edges were tagged”. This is odd, as I pay lots of attention to tagging everything.
I probably shouldn’t have written “only a few”. I should have included faces, too. Running TIG’s Default Tag Geometry yields this.
As for the labels in the export, I wonder if this is a Mac thing. Perhaps @adam has some input.
We will be restoring legacy behavior when the Export all to Model Space is selected in an upcoming release. This issue should no longer happen with that option selected.

Perhaps OT: I have a longtime feature request for the export all to model space function: add an option to scale the export with a given scale factor. This would eliminate the need to postprocess the exported file in CAD to scale everything back up from paper to full scale for the recipient CAD users.
