1. Launch the IFC Exporter Commands:

Open your Autodesk® AutoCAD® drawing (or Autodesk® AutoCAD® Plant 3D™ and Autodesk® AutoCAD® MEP drawing).

Access the IFC Exporter commands via the AutoCAD command line or potentially a dedicated ribbon/toolbar (if implemented). Key commands include:

• IFCExporterAutoEXPORT: For quick exports with default/saved settings.
• IFCExporterMANUALEXPORT: For exports requiring specific, on-the-fly configuration.
• IFCExporterProject: For exporting multiple files or project structures.
• IFCExporterUNITS: To pre-configure or check unit settings for export.
• IFCExporterSETTINGS: To adjust general export parameters and save default configurations.

2. Configure Export Settings (Optional but Recommended):

• Use the IFCExporterSETTINGS command to access the Settings window. Define default parameters like the target IFC schema (IFC2x3, IFC4, IFC2x2), export configurations, etc.
• Use the IFCExporterUNITS command to precisely define the measurement units for your exported IFC file, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

3. Initiate IFC Export:

• Choose your desired export command (IFCExporterAutoEXPORT, IFCExporterMANUALEXPORT, or IFCExporterProject).
• If using Manual or Project export, a dialog window (ManualExportView or UnitsView respectively) will appear, allowing you to confirm or adjust settings for the current export task.
• Follow the prompts in the dialog window to select objects (if applicable) and finalize export parameters.

4. Save the IFC File:

• Once the export process is configured, you will typically be prompted to specify a file name and location to save the resulting .ifc file.
• Click "Save" or "Export" to generate the IFC file.

5. Utilize the Exported IFC:

• The generated IFC file can now be imported into other BIM authoring tools or platforms that support the chosen IFC schema (IFC2x3, IFC4, or IFC2x2). 
• Share the IFC file with collaborators for coordination, review, or integration into larger BIM projects.
