Default Subdivide

Hello,
First post here...

Just started using AC3D. GREAT program.
I have a question.
Subdivide, does that actually increase the number of vertices?

I am modeling, and then exporting to use in CNC.
When I do a model and then export it, it is faceted.
Not smooth like when I subdivide the model.

Is that normal??
So, subdividing does'nt really increase the vertices, when exporting the model.

I export to .dxf and then import them into my CNC program.

Anyone have any ideas?
thanks

Hi,
I think you forget to commit the subdivision before exporting your model (object / commit subdivision).
