In most cases the main part starts with the following line:

 

ELSANEW;ELSADXFIN;DATEI;

 

At first AutoCAD is emptied and a drawing sheet is loaded, or “opened” in other words. Then something is done with the drawing sheet in question. Thereafter the main part is ended with:

 

ELSADXFOUT;

 

The ELSADXFOUT command saves the drawing sheet.

 

This procedure is repeated for each drawing sheet.

 

In some cases the ELSADXFOUT command is omitted. That is done when there is no reason to save the drawing sheet. Plotting is a typical example of such a situation. There is no reason to save the sheet then. In fact it is better not to do it.
