I do a lot of DXF import. Here are the guideline that I follow :
1) use R12 dxf
2) in AutoCad check zoom/extents to get the limits of the dxf
3) in MI use non-earth projection
4) set the map limits according to the zoom/extents in acad
Hope this helps,
Jure.

Zadeva: MI DXF Importing
Hi All,
I am having all sorts of problems importing any old dxf file into MI
V5.5, and will soon lose the will to live ;-) !! Please offer some
advice if you can.
I am trying the process of Table > Import >DXF etc etc. As I have been
able to work this in the past (on MI V4.12) I can't understand the
problem. After clicking on OK, it either stops immediately stating an
object error, or will begin processing the file and find numerous line
limitations problems, eventually creating a .tab file with no objects
whatsoever.
Is there a particular version of a dxf that I should be importing, i.e.
Autocad V13ASCII ???? Or is my version of MI corrupt, or is it user
error?!?
To add insult to injury, I have NEVER been able to use the Universal
Translator (and there is little documentation explaining its use in any
manual or online help). After filling in all of the fields and setting
it off to perform the translation, I received back the following error
message:
"Exception ElnOutError in module imutgui.exe at 0004A95C. Invalid
Filename"
Are you able to tell me what this means? Am I using the translator
wrong? What can I do?
I hope that someone can help me with this. I apologise if I am sounding
bitter and twisted about this, but I've come to the end of my tether.
TIA
