I would be great if we could get a DXF from the section plane.

For that you can use the Coss section tool in Part workbench to obtain the real geometry of a section of your model. It only produce wires, though. Do you also need the hatches, in DXF?

Thanks, I didn't know that. However, because I want to do that on an imported step file, I'm not sure it'll work.
