    From Illustrator to Autocad for Mac for 3D

    Hi guys,

    How do you import an Illustrator vector file to Autocad for Mac then make a 3D with it?

    I have tried many but no luck so far. I was able to import the file and it look fine but I seem never to be able to make it to 3D.

    Extrude command simply won't work!!

    How do you make(convert) the imported file to work??

    Thanks for the helps in advance.

    Most of the curves, that comes from Illustrator are SPLINE objects, so you can try to convert them to polylines with SPLINEDIT command:
