Hi gang, I have a customer that has sent me a DXF file from UG NX3. The contents of the DXF is there drawing formats. When I translate the DXF into WF2 the wire frame looks ok but the text in some areas are good, but in other areas the texts repeats itself - no more than doubles itself. The GD&T, I expected it to weird out. Can anyone direct me to improve translation on WF2 side or what I need to tell the UG NX3 person what to select or make in there setting file.
Thanks in advance - Texaspete

You might ask them to export CGM. I've had good luck importing drawings in the past. (It might be necessary to 'roll back' to NX2(?) if that's possible. I have a vague memory of developing mid-project communication problems stemming from their upgrading to NX3. I was using an early WF2 build.)
