Abstract

In a method and a CAD system for converting a dimensional representation of a technical drawing from a first dimensional representation standard with first dimensional representation attributes into a second dimensional representation standard with second dimensional representation attributes the dimensional representations of a technical drawing which are to be converted are selected and read into a list, and starting with the first dimensional representation element in the list, a dimensional representation element is read from the list, and it is determined whether the dimensional representation element is provided with dimensional representation element legends which are independent of dimensional representation standards, and, if this is the case, all dimensional representation element legends are stored, the first dimensional representation attributes of the dimensional representation element are converted into the second dimensional representation attributes, and it is determined whether the dimensional representation element is provided with dimensional representation legends which are independent of dimensional representation standards, and, if this is the case, the dimensional representation element legends are restored and inserted into the dimensional representation element having the second dimensional representation attributes, and it is determined whether the dimensional representation element is provided with tolerance data, and, if this is the case, the tolerance data is converted into tolerance data having the second dimensional representation attributes.
