Thanks very much...

   
    Now i understand "DXF group 370"., but when i am translating 
small world data to autocad by "expose the format attribute
"autocad_lineweight" in the destination feature type definition", I 
am not getting default "0" as line weight for all.

Would anyone know what is happening here ? 

Thanks.
