Nest loses circles when exported as DXF

I have been using the Nesting and Fabrication extension to create laser-cutting patterns.  One of the items is a hexagonal hatch cover with 6 holes.    In Fusion 360 it looks like this:

When I export this sheet as DXF and open it in AutoCAD LT (or CorelCAD, for that matter) the hexagonal hatches only have 4 holes:

Very annoying!

The nesting file is here: https://a360.co/3wmGYKV

There is no file at the upload location of your link. Can you try exporting it via this route, go to :-

File > Export > Select .dxf format > Save to a location on your computer > Then attach to your reply using the "Attachments" function below your reply box.

 

Have you tried exporting it as a .dwg file ??

 

.dxf files are notorious for their inconsistency as regards opening properly in other Softwares 😞 😞
