WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: In order to export an AutoCad file for use in WordPerfect, do the following: With the graphic already created, click the mouse on the option called UTILITY on the right side of the screen. The next menu will have an option for DXF. Highlight that option with the mouse and click. DXF OUT is the next option that needs to be clicked on and then the user will be prompted for the name of the graphic and the number of decimal places for accuracy.

Troubleshooting Helps:
1.      AutoCAD saves automatically into a DWG format and must export in DXF format for it to work correctly.

2.      The AutoCAD DXF format must be converted to WPG format with the GRAPHCNV.EXE before bringing it into WordPerfect.

3.      The following DXF attributes are not converted: text obliquing, text control codes and special characters, curve fitting, and 3D rendering. Also, problems can arise when using Layering Polylines.
