What I found with some of the dxf readers is that they choke on files
output from Allegro in mils.  If you convert the Allegro drawing to inches
and then output the dxf the problem goes away.

I have the exact same issue importing newer dxf into ORCAD (or even
solidworks and autocad) when it is expecting an older version of dxf.  Any
help is appreciated.

Has anyone noticed problems with circles disappearing while importing ipf
files and mirror the graphics before it is placed in Allegro?  I am using
Version 15.2 on an XP operating system on more than one system.  On some
systems the circles disappear when the ipf is imported into Allegro and
mirrored and other systems the circles are retained.  The plot settings
don't seem to make a difference.

Thanks in advance,
Don Folk
