We are getting the 'Failed to import from file" message when trying to import a DXF drawing of a board outline. The CAD that generated it will open it as a DXF file.

All help appreciated

Make sure the DXF file only contains polylines and definately NO splines.

I don't think there are any splines. The drawing is a simple rectangle that was created with General Cadd and saved as a .dxf. I have also tried several other simple shapes with the same result.

There's no known issue at present with DXF import. You'll have to send a copy of the DXF file to <support@numberone.com> for investigation.
