Program: Inventor 2012
Type: Sheet Metal Mode
1. Right click my Flat Pattern
2. Select "Export Face As"
I select the option and I do FOUR separate test(2000,2004,2007,2010)
and save each on accodingly
part_2000.dxf
part_2004.dxf
part_2007.dxf
part_2010.dxf
when I drag each of them into "AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 2" I get this
Unknown value "AC1024" encountered in drawing version.
Invalid or incomplete DXF input -- drawing discarded.
I understand 2010 not able but the last 3 from before 2009. Am I missing something here??

Hi
Dioes this happen with just one file, or andy sheet metal file that you save as a DXF?
Can you attach a DXF file that demonstrats this here?
Have you read this post, and or tried the suggestion of renaming and using the standard open method?
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

Attached are all DXF. It is a simple contour flage. if you need the .ipt let me know I will review that info you gave me though
" Have you read this post, and or tried the suggestion of renaming and using the standard open method?"
what post. I thought the thread under your name was the reference 🙂
just tried the
1.Autocad 2009-->File--open--Dxf and same error came up
2. I renamed 2007v to .dwg and tried opening and said "Drawing File is not Valid"

ok so from what it sounds
Code Version
AC1027 AutoCAD 2013/2014
AC1024 AutoCAD 2010/2011/2012
AC1021 AutoCAD 2007/2008/2009
AC1018 AutoCAD 2004/2005/2006
AC1015 AutoCAD 2000/2000i/2002
AC1014 AutoCAD Release 14
AC1012 AutoCAD Release 13
I need Acad2010 minimum and beyond to fix this and see the .dxf?
Hi jbelle7435,
So when I opened your file named part_2000.dxf with Microsoft Notepad, I see AC1024 in the header information, which made me think that the file is not actually getting saved out as a 2000 version DXF.
So then a quick search turned up this thread:
Which contains a link to this hotfix:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=17027483&linkID=9242019
But it appears that this hotfix is inlcuded in ServicePack 1, which is actually included in ServicePack 2, so I would suggest that you install SP2 from this link:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=19164683&linkID=9242019
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis
