Received DXF files from from NX3, translation to WF2 flakey

Received DXF files from from NX3, translation to WF2 flakey

Received DXF files from from NX3, translation to WF2 flakey

(OP)
Hi gang, I have a customer that has sent me a DXF file from UG NX3. The contents of the DXF is there drawing formats. When I translate the DXF into WF2 the wire frame looks ok but the text in some areas are good, but in other areas the texts repeats itself - no more than doubles itself. The GD&T, I expected it to weird out. Can anyone direct me to improve translation on WF2 side or what I need to tell the UG NX3 person what to select or make in there setting file.
Thanks in advance - Texaspete

RE: Received DXF files from from NX3, translation to WF2 flakey

You might ask them to export CGM.  I've had good luck importing drawings in the past.  (It might be necessary to 'roll back' to NX2(?) if that's possible.  I have a vague memory of developing mid-project communication problems stemming from their upgrading to NX3.  I was using an early WF2 build.)
