    Use DXF.ULP to export the drawing as a DXF file.

    If you want to have editable text in the Autocad file, in Eagle

    options->user interface menu uncheck the 'always vector font' and

    'Persistent in this drawing' blocks. Also, in DXF.ULP, uncheck 'Always

    vector font'. This will let Autocad import actual text strings instead

    of vectors. Then, in Autocad, type DXFIN in the command line. Depending

    on the release of Autocad you have, it might have to be a new, blank

    drawing for the command to work.
