Jhony,

Put the file back into autocad and use the explode command on all the drawing. Then resave and bring it back into mastercam. That should clean up at least 99 % of the problem.

 

Some of the geometry is not supported in a dwg/dxf format. By "exploding" the geometry it breaks it down to the basic lines, arcs, ect.

 

Fun, Huh ?

jhony what version are you using.

V9 supports Alott more then V8 does when it comes to this.

 

Now that I read one of your earler post. update to 8.1.1 this will help you to with this issue.

look under Patchs on this site for te diffrencs.

 

you will see a link to V8 patchs and another link in there were it will go over some of the details.
