    DR can't open this file when exported from ACA

    Had lots of problems trying to export to DR which can't then open the file.  Narrowed it down to this MVB model of a sink/tap.  If ACA can model it, shouldn't DR be able to display it?

    ADR is a DWF viewer, and it uses the free dwg viewer (requires the ACA OE to be installed I believe) to convert a file, if it all works: why not export to DWFx from ACA first, if you already have ACA? Skip a step by only using the software you know and control fully.

    That’s what I have done but DR can’t open it. Here’s the file ACA exports that AD can’t open. Nathan
