Dunno, did you google? Autodesk publishes the format: http://www.autodesk.com/techpubs/autocad/acad2000/dxf/index.htm and this page shows that my memory doesn't serve me well (it's Drawing Interchange File) and DXF was extended quite a bit since I worked with it. On an up to date sarge: % apt-cache search DXF admesh - a tool for processing triangulated solid meshes dime - DXF Import, Manipulation, and Export programs. libdime - DXF Import, Manipulation, and Export library. libdime-dev - DXF Import, Manipulation, and Export library - devel libdime-doc - DXF Import, Manipulation, and Export library - devel qcad - a professional CAD System Quite a bit to try :) > > Can you tell which AutoCAD version is needed to read the plan? See the autodesk link above. Thanks . Siggy
