    Drawing is not valid error

    I got the "drawing is not valid" message while working in AutoCad 2004.

    I was importing jpg files and tracing them, then deleting the jpg.

    I would greatly appreciate help with it.

    The file is 2.58 meg and over your limit.  Can I send it somewhere else?

    ZIP not an option on your PC?

    or try the many free services on the internet like www.wikisend.com

    I didn't think the file would compress that small.

    The zip file is attached.

    Any help opening it would be greatly appreciated.

    Your file is dead and gone: AutoCAD 2011 and 2012 would not recover it, neither will two other non-autodesk apps that can open DWG files. Hopefully you have a backup from the day before or earlier to use, or an autosave file you can rename and reuse.
