   Can anybody read this file into ACAD?

   Paul Lamar


It opened for me in AutoCAD 2010.  Do you want it converted to DWG?  If
so, what ACAD version?

Paul,

It opened, but I  couldn't get it to display anything with my AutoCAD 2000 LT. However, when I tried opening it in Rhino 4, it worked fine and the drawing was there.  I captured the two attached views from Rhino for you. Do you need anything done with the original?

Regards,

Jack Hilditch




Thanks guys. I got the problem solved.
I was exporting it as polygon meshes instead of curves.
Some programs had trouble with that.
Saving it as curves solved the problem.
Linux Q Cad and Open Office Drawing can now see them.
