      Dear users,

      I am a Lumerical FDTD user. For 3D laser cutting, I want to export my FDTD design to CAD format (.dxf file). Is there any way for me to do?

      Thank you,

      Hi Thank,

      Thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, we only have a way to import the STEP file. 
       
      STEP Import - Simulation object – Ansys Optics
      stepimport - Script command – Ansys Optics

      You can export a GDSII file however: GDSII Export Automation

      Kind Regards,

      Niki
