The DWG format is AutoCAD's format. Googling for "dwg reader" showed me 579 hits. There are a number of free applications. Since the file appears to have come from AutoCAD (it can output to DXF, too), there could be a problem with the translation to DXF from DWG.

I received this file from the one who sold me an appartment.  He also
sent it in .dwg format.  Could I have more luck with that?

Ciao, Albert

Hi Albert,
It works for me. 'file / open' choose 'dxf' as the file type. The file opens in draw. Maybe your dxf is invalid. Can you open in another program?
tc

Googling I saw that openoffice can import .dxf files.  I am using
version 2.0 under Linux but I can't find the import function and when I
open the .dxf an "Invalid file format" error.
Do I need a plugin?  If so, where is it?

Tia, Albert
