Bug Description
If I import this particular DXF, the drawing area becomes blank. This includes objects that are visible prior to importing the file. Changing the display mode, zooming in/out doesn't help. Saving to SVG and re-opening doesn't help either. Bounding boxes, guides and other non-payload stuff are all visible and can be acted upon, but the image itself is blank. It does render on export though.
Steps to take:
1. Start new Inkscape instance.
2. Draw something, a couple shapes will do.
3. Drag the DXF file into the drawing area to import it.
4. Observe the bug.
5. Export the drawing to a PNG file - the image will be there.
The DXF file was generated by Ascon Kompas 3D V13.

DXF import with Inkscape 0.91 creates text objects with font size 0px: /bugs.launchpad .net/inkscape/ +bug/1294784
style="font-size: 0.0px;
which triggers a known regression in Inkscape 0.91:
* Bug #1294784 “text with font of size zero pixels renders drawing invisible (rev >= 12488)”
