MI Importing Autocad .dwg file to BNG

MI Clip Regions don't always Clip

This might be an obvious question: I'm working with some files of very uncertain history containing coastlines and landmasses at quite high resolution. I suspect that in an earlier life, at least one of these files was a bitmap - there are a fair number of indeterminate single pixels scattered
