One incompatibility I've seen (with Progecad and Progecad LT) is DText
from dxf. We use proprietary software that ex****ts to dxf. When I im****t
the dxf into Progecad, all the text ends up with the same y-coordinate,
ie all in one line with multiple items on top of each other. It's not a
UCS problem as far as I can tell, and if I convert it to a dwg first,
the problem disappears, but that necessitates running a converter prior
to every block insertion, which is a real pain. Autocad doesn't have
this problem, so I stay with an out-of-date version of Cad. I can only
assume that the dxfin function is with the Intellicad core. If it isn't,
I would like to hear about it.
