Description

Go to https://maker.js.org/docs/basic-drawing/#Models

Change the last two lines of code to this:

var dxf = makerjs.exporter.toDXF(model);
console.log(dxf);

I would expect a string, but all I'm getting is undefined.

Research direction

Start with the Models example at https://maker.js.org/docs/basic-drawing/#Models and reproduce the call to makerjs.exporter.toDXF(model). Trace the toDXF exporter entry point and compare its result with makerjs.exporter.toSVG(); done means the documented model produces the expected DXF string instead of undefined.
