See the simple drawing shown, which defines a gripper and can be saved as a DXF file to import back inside the Gripper inventory.
Here are some important points about how the DXF is drawn:
The origin of the drawing (0,0) corresponds to the robot wrist centre. You can see this represented by a point and circle in the figure. (Both the point and the circle are not needed for the gripper import since the gripper centre is implicitly always at the origin).
This drawing also has some POINT entities representing each of the suction cup locations. Again, these are primarily for making the drawing clear and are not used by the gripper importer (the suction cup positions are specified by text entities).
The actual plate shape is drawn as closed POLYLINE entities. If you have other polylines inside the outer one, they become holes in the plate.
