Exporting to DWG file not opening in AutoCAD

I have tried to export some simple 2D sketches I created in Inventor into a DWG format used in AutoCAD (which I will eventually turn into a DXF file). However, AutoCAD shows a blank dark screen when I open the DWG file. Is there something that I am missing during the export process?

Hi

 

If you click on the options button at the bottom, he sketches export option is not checked by default, you need to enable it.

Hello,

 

I have tried this already and unfortunately, changing the export settings do not make a difference. However, I have solved the problem and realized that my drawings have shifted planes during the export. Is there a way in AutoCAD to correct the shift and move the entire drawing into a different plane? Sorry I am not very well versed with AutoCAD.
