Tutorial for creating simple DXF drawings
=========================================
:ref:`r12writer` - create simple DXF R12 drawings with a restricted entities
set: LINE, CIRCLE, ARC, TEXT, POINT, SOLID, 3DFACE and POLYLINE.
Advantage of the *r12writer* is the speed and the low memory footprint, all
entities are written direct to the file/stream without building a drawing data
structure in memory.
.. seealso::
:ref:`r12writer`
Create a new DXF drawing with :func:`ezdxf.new` to use all available DXF
entities:
.. code-block:: Python
import ezdxf
# Create a new DXF R2010 drawing, official DXF version name: "AC1024"
doc = ezdxf.new('R2010')
# Add new entities to the modelspace:
msp = doc.modelspace()
# Add a LINE entity
msp.add_line((0, 0), (10, 0))
doc.saveas('line.dxf')
New entities are always added to layouts, a layout can be the model space, a
paper space layout or a block layout.
