ryno79 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Im having a wierd situation with opening .dxf files from some customers. When i try to open it with autocad2009, it says its invalid or incomplete. I tried True View and it does the same thing. Also tried some random software i found when i googled .dxf. So nothing on my computer will open these files period. But, another pc here has autocad 2007, which opens it fine, leaving me very confused. Does anyone know why i cant open these on my computer? Thank you ahead of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Have you downloaded and installed the latest service pack (also referred to as Update 2)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryno79 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Well the update did not fix it. It doesnt seem to be a problem with just auto cad either. I tried a free Solidworks dxf viewer also and it wouldnt work(cant remember what it was called now). Hmmm almost seems to me like files are just saved as an older version, but if thats the case, why cant 2009 open 2007 files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
