Coordinate information is stored in a DXF_RXL file. This file has the same name as the exported DXF chart and is saved in the same location. If the DXF_RXL file is deleted, no coordinate reference system is associated with the DXF chart.
A specific area of the sheet can be exported using the Set Export Area command.
