JOE,
Your files are coming in as 3d files in Microstation, won't open in earlier versions of AutoCAD but will open in
later versions.
1. Save your drawings as a 2d, version 12 DXF
2. You only draw the top half of the profile. See Appendix "B", figure 3.5.1 of the manual. Also look at the
other comments in that appendix.
3.As far as DXF's are concerned, read Appendix "C"
I know nothing about Corel Draw. All programs are not created equal when it comes to what they create and export.
That's what appendix "c" tells you and then tries to address the issue. To make your drawings work i would have
converted them from 3d to 2d, then modified them to agree with appendix "B" , then exported them as
a version 12 DXF. Since i don't have or use your program i can't give specifics to Corel Draw on what exactly you need to do.
As far as using the manual, Appendix B & C are solid and still are standing the test of time.
The manual is being updated, and maybe, depending on how things go today, there will be an update shortly.
