problem importing dxf

[neelie2]

I am trying to recreate an old pc board of ours that I need Gerbers for our board house.  I have scanned an old mylar plot of the silkscreen layer , saved it as a pdf then made a dxf of it from AutoCad.  When I try to import it into Eagle (which I admit is older - version 6.6) I get this pop-up:

Can't open 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Eagle 6.6.0) import-dxf.scr"
Permission denied 

I don't have that .scr anywhere.

Hello @neelie2,

I hope you're doing well. This error usually means that there was a permissions issue. Where do you have the files stored? 

Just as a test try saving the files to the documents folder and then running the import-dxf.ulp.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,

Hi Jorge,  Thanks for the prompt response.  I think I have many problems other than that.  I did try as you suggested but with no success.  Is there a way to correspond with you other than through the forum?  I have many other EAGLE related questions specific to my account (which I have to say has gotten extremely confusing since Cadsoft days). I am not even certain which version I can run anymore. 

Thank you and if you could just email me directly that would be great!

@neelie2 ， there is a native insertdxf command and you don't need to use the ulp anymore:
