Comment 3 for bug 987129

thanks for the file, when I try to open it I get an error as well, on Windows 7, Inkscape 0.48.3.1
The problem is that the file is from AutoCad Release 12, and the current dxf import routine will only read Release 13 or newer. You can convert from one to the other using QCad, since the default format for saving from QCad is Release 13. When I do this I get the attached dxf file.
