Found a solution.<br>
<br>
The Dxf2Shp will work with 2D DXF's but not 3D DXF's.<br>
<br>
Handy if you have the ability to generate 2D.<br>

Hi,<br>
without having a deeper view in the plugin I would expect that
importing dxf is quite difficult anyway. The main issue is that dxf
contains multiple geometric formats (polylines, lines, points,
annotations, splines ...) mixed in different layers! Whereas a shape
can contain only one single geometric format in one single layer! I
would belive that the plugin is not as sophisticated as the import
routines of programs with many years of experience with dxf.<br>
Anyway my sugestion is to use Grass to import dxf an convert to shape
or use Grass layers in Qgis. I had good experience this way. Otherwise
Grass can manage layers and can convert geometric formats. More over it
can clean and build the topology (maybe this is why your import fails).<br>

<pre>Hi Folks,
Having some problems importing DXF's using the DXF2SHP plug-in. Often
all I get is a centre point, not the rest of image. Occasionally it will
work properly. I'm having the most success importing them as Pollyline.
Other programs load the DXF's fine. It's just QGIS that is giving me
trouble.
Any ideas?
