Hi,  
I have an issue when I export my document in layout ( whatever format i use…).  
The export document shows differents lines which are not in the original document, when the viewport reference is taken with the position camera tool ( when you directly want an elevation view).  
I tried to dismiss different things which could be hiden in the Sketchup styles, but nothing happens.

Thanks for helping.

It is a known thing that when using Vector or Hybrid rendering in LayOut, views that use viewport clipping instead of section planes show edges behind the camera. You should either use section planes or export only using Raster rendering. If you only see the lines in the LayOut document when exporting, you have probably Output Override turned on.
