Remarks

Extended data is an example of instance-specific data created by applications written with ObjectARX or AutoLISP. This data can be added to any entity. This data follows the entity's definition data and is maintained in the order in which it was saved into the document. (AutoCAD maintains this information but doesn't use it.)
