QGIS – How to Export Labels to CAD

dxfexportlabelingqgis

When using the export function via Project -> Import/Export my labels do not appear in CAD afterwards. I checked the "Export as MTEXT" box and tried using different scales. But I cannot get the labels to be exported to the dxf-file. The polygons and lines are being exported just fine. Only the labels are missing.

I'm working with QGIS 3.10.4 and open my dxf-files with AutoCAD LT 2019.

Anyone an idea what might be wrong or how I can get my labels to CAD?

I found the solution myself:

In the layer properties the size of the labels mustn't be in "Meters at Scale". I can't get it to work, no matter what settings I use.

It works fine with "Map Units", no matter the scale you choose in the export window.

When using "Millimeters", "Points", "Pixels" or "Inches" you have to set the Symboloby scale in the export window to the exact scale you are currently viewing in your map. E.g. if you're currently on a scale of 1:4105 in your map view, you'll have to set exactly this scale in the export window for the labels to be exported.
