I have a drawing that I need opening and converting to DXF. Anyone can do that for me? I have just been messing about trying to install TrueView for the past 2 hours and lost my rag.

I used this recently and it worked ok

I don’t use AutoCAD but should be able to open it in NX. Send it over to the E-mail in my profile and I’ll give it a shot.

draftsight is free and will do exactly what you want – it’s Dassualt Systemes freebie DXF/DWG editor.

If you struggle, email me and I’ll convert for you.

Steve Ireland – can’t see email in profile

Haggis, a quick look seems that only views not converts (back to 2008)

CP will look now!

Steve,

email sent. Am trying to install draftsight too as a long-term solution!

Draftsight is a pretty decent package. Well worth a play with. That said I haven’t had any issues with TrueView, although anything associated with AutoCAD is never going to be easy.

That Draftsight was brill,

Done!

Thanks a lot everyone
