DXF Export / 3D Wireframe / beginShape() ??

Hi boardMembers. Apologies in advance for the questionable placement of this topic - I think it equally could have been put in Core Library, Contributed Library, and Programming Questions...
I'm attempting to use v3ga's blobDetection Library combined with the DXF Export library in order to generate DXF files based upon the blob edges. I have the edges being detected and drawn as per the example file on v3ga's site, and I am successfully exporting the DXF file as per the P5 reference.
But it is exporting 4kb DXF files that aren't readable by Inkscape or Illustrator (well, they open, but have no useful information). I have a suspicion that this is because I only have 2D information, and am not generating any type of mesh or wireframe. Of course, the blobDetection is generating vertexes, but I'm not sure how to get the beginRaw() function to directly access those...
I guess what I am asking is whether 1) I need to somehow transform the blob edge information into a wireframe (but I dont want this information to turn into 3 dimensions...) in order to have the DXF library export a file with relevant information ?? or 2) create a shape with beginShape() ?? These are both new methods/techniques to me, so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone has any thoughts before I jumped into the deep end...
Thanks....
