Format
Determines the drawing file format for the resulting drawing file.
Bind
Determines how xrefs are treated when creating the new drawing.

objects are merged into the new drawing.
No Maintains the xrefs as links to other drawings.
Bind Type
Determines how xref-dependent objects are treated when the Bind option is
turned on.
Bind Maintains the names of layers and other xref-dependent objects when
binding xrefs.
Insert Merges the names of xref-dependent objects into the new drawing
without including the original file name.
Maintain
Determines how blocks within custom AEC objects are treated.

AutoCAD objects. The resulting basic objects revert to their original properties
rather than the properties of the block definitions.

properties of the block instances are determined in the usual way, depending
on how the objects in the blocks were created and the property settings of the
layers on which the blocks are inserted.
