To Import a DXF File

You can use DXF files created by other applications to bring information into AutoCAD Map 3D toolset. When you import objects from DXF files, they do not have links to other objects or to data. For example, a polygon that encloses a parcel ID is not linked to the parcel ID except visually.

To import a DXF file

  1. Click Open Drawing.
  2. In the Select File dialog box, under Files Of Type, select DXF (*.dxf).
  3. Select the file. Click Open.
