Compatibility with CorelDraw

[Anonymous]

I was wondering what should be done with autocad files dwg or dfx in order to make it compatible with CorelDraw? CD should accept dxf files but the pictures come out almost unreadable. Is there something that should be done in AutoCad to make the files fit for CorelDraw?

Hi @Anonymous,

I have not worked with CorelDraw in years but I am guessing that if the DXF file is not working very well, you might try using an older version of DXF such as R12.  What are you bringing the AutoCAD drawings into CorelDraw for? If they are just "pictures" you might print to a PDF first from AutoCAD and then bring that into CorelDraw.
