    I have a DXF/CAD file that was created in Cadintosh for OSX.
    Unfortunately none of the suppliers I have emailed it to can read it
    (neither tha CAD or the DXF). Could some kind person please have a
    look at my CAD or DXF files and perhaps resave them for me in a more
    recent version of Autocad? I can't find any utility on the mac that
    would help me out.

    Thanks in advance - its a project I've been working on for ages and
    this is a real stumbling block.

    The files are here

    The DXF file appears to be blank. It's only 25K. Pretty small for a DXF
    file.

    its a pretty small diagram...but maybe something is getting lost in
    translation. Can you try and see if you can read either of these files

    There are no layer names and no entities that I can find.

    That I could Import (Acad 2005).
