I'm looking for the fastest way to export floor plans (hundreds) via revit api from a Revit model so that the output will be a visible indication of the floor plan (image, dwg, dxf, thumbnail, pdf).
Given over 400 floor plans, I've tried:
Image export with various settings, tested as low as 72dpi with 256 pixel - about 20 min DWG export - about 17 min. DXF export - about 17 min.
Are there any other ways to export the floor plans in a quick manner? speed is the key in my problem as long as there is some viable output for each plan.
I took this up with the development team for you. So far, they have provided one pretty interesting suggestion:
Is it possible to open the model in multiple versions of Revit at once, say N, and have each version export one view (or 400/N views)?
