sounds like a good product. I open a dwg in acad2000, save-as r14, open it in R14, save-as R12, open it in ffm and cut.

Our designers want to move away from saving our drawings as R12 because our archive drawings are now all saved as Autocad 2000. Obviously, it is not healthy to have multiple copies of the same drawings floating around. There is an "open dwg alliance" in existence that has developed an open dwg toolkit. This toolkit is reported to be able to translate even Autocad 2000 drawings. I was wondering if any of you have tried making use of this toolkit to help keep Smartcam cooking. Any comments?
