Reassigned to Sven. Please add a comment if this is really a bug or a feature. Thanks. Hi, the dxf import filter of OOo is not supporting binary dxf files, so you should have no problems with your graphic. It would be best if you attach your file to this Issue, so it can be determined what's going wrong. If you need to import vector graphics, you can also try emf, wmf, met or pict format. Created attachment 5679 [details]
Small ASCII DXF file (a line, a box, a text string) created with DIA 0.9
Additional comments to uploaded DXF file. I have visually checked the file against the Autocad DXF Reference 2002, Appendix A (here there is a visual basic example on creating a dxf) and it looks ok. The suggestion to use emf, wmf, met or pict (I'm not famiiar with met or pict) has the drawback that it is more complex to generate drawings automatically with perl or C++. My current aim is to automatically generate electronic component symbols and maybe also block diagrams from a hardware description language and import these to an OO specification document. The ability to _import_ svg would be even nicer. Might I suggest it for future releases? The problem in your attachment "test.dxf" is the firtst character, it should be an integer. ( "0" instead of "O" ), then everything is working. I also would like to have a SVG import, maybe there is somebody in the community who will implement this otherwise I can imagine that Batic will be integrated. I close this Issue. |
