    • RE: [Plugin] Dxf_In v2.2 20110517 Dxf2Skp

      Sorry for my lack of vocabulary here-- If the splines (curved lines) in AI were converted to a series of small straight line segments, then perhaps they would be Polylines in the dxf?
      I was not able to import square.dxf, the same file you imported successfully! Any ideas? Thank you!

      Here are 4 files for your experimentation/troubleshooting :
      1.the DXF export from (1) DXF export from AI contours
      2.png of (1) so you can see what the DXF is supposed to showpng from AI file of topo contours
      3.DXF export from AI of a simple, 2D square - black stroke, white fill. DXF export of filled square
      4.screenshot of AI-DXF export settings screenshot of AI-DXF export settings

      The AI file of topo contours file would not upload; but if you can use it, I could email it to you.
      Thanks for the help!

      I am trying to get topographic contour lines into SU8 as vectors. Illustrator (AI) can "trace" raster images from topo maps very nicely, but then I cannot get the results into SU8.
      --I created a simple filled 2-d square in AI,
      --exported that as a dxf with the "AutoCAD version 2004/2005/2006" option in the AI export dialog.
      --I used your plug-in (my_dxf_In_v1.22.rb) to import this file into SU8,
      --and get the SU error "<Error> or Empty File".
      --I tried the other export->CAD options from AI to no avail.
      --Also, "polylines to faces" or "polylines to edges" made no difference.

      Any suggestions? Do you think AI is exporting "non-Acad-compliant" dxf?
