When you have several DXF/DWG or DWF files to import, use the Import DXF/DWG or DWF command for maximum flexibility.
To import DXF/DWG or DWF files:
1. Create a blank file and set the drawing size, or open an empty template that already has the correct drawing size.
Import into an existing Vectorworks drawing is not recommended, because it can produce unexpected results. For the same reason, if you import more than one file with the Import DXF/DWG or DWF command, ensure that the files are very similar.
2. Select File > Import > Import DXF/DWG or DWF.
The Import dialog box opens.
Click to show/hide the parameters.
3. Click OK to import the file(s).
The progress of the import is displayed for each imported file during import. The final results of the import process are shown in the DXF/DWG or DWF Import Results dialog box.
4. Click Details to open the results log file. The log text file, named DXF_DWG_DWF Import Log, is placed in the specified destination folder if it exists, or in the Vectorworks user folder. New log information is appended to any existing log file. The report provides a summary of the import, including the import settings that were used, and a list of which files succeeded, and which failed.
