Exporting dxf. gives bad results on a corner made by arc or circle

SketchUp Pro

Hi

Hopefully the problem can be solved by doing something before the export to dxf format.

I´m have done many drawings in 2D Sketchup 14 and exported them to dxf to be cut out by a waterjet (CNC)
The results are okay but not good enough because arcs and cirkels are made by several sides.
this can be solved changing the sides value but still doesn’t look good and the CNC machines runs slow if you compare it with other non Sketchup dxf files.

Any good ideas ?

Thanks’

Export the 2d as a 3d dxf and the arcs and circles will be true.
