Feature_Format

The format in which the output features will be delivered. The string provided should be formatted as follows: Name or format - Short Name - extension (if any) The hyphen between the components is required, as well as the spaces around the hyphen.For example: File Geodatabase - GDB - .gdb Shapefile - SHP - .shp Autodesk AutoCAD - DXF_R2007 - .dxf Autodesk AutoCAD - DWG_R2007 - .dwg Bentley Microstation Design (V8) - DGN_V8 - .dgn Internally, this tool uses the Export to CAD tool to convert data to the .dgn, .dwg, and .dxf CAD formats. The list of short names supported includes DGN_V8, DWG_R14, DWG_R2000, DWG_R2004, DWG_R2005, DWG_R2007, DWG_R2010, DXF_R14, DXF_R2000, DXF_R2004, DXF_R2005, DXF_R2007, and DXF_R2010.
