All :)
Someone asked what do to when encountering 'premature end-of-file' when
importing DXF objects from the MAC.
Well, I do that A LOT (yuck!). I found the best way to get a dxf object
from the MAC to LW is:
1. Get it into Strata Studio Pro on the MAC
2. Export it as DXF
3. Use Apple File Exchange to convert the ASCII text. use
'Text Translation', 'mac to ms-dos', default settings.
4. It usually loads fine in LW.
I'd also like to thank Daniel McCoy for the great work he is doing on
this list. Thanks a lot, DJ!
