How to Import a DXF (CAD) Drawing in Free SketchUp 8!
SketchUp 8 came with an unpleasant surprise for anyone who uses files based on CAD drawing software (.dwg/.dxf): the new free version of the program no longer imports files with these extensions. [caption id="attachment_345" align="alignleft" width="156"] With the plugin installed, the Import DXF option appears in the File menu.[/caption] While there's no solution yet for DWG files, a good workaround is the DXFin Importer plugin: a plugin released for SketchUp that allows importing DXF files, which already helps anyone who needs to open these files. The plugin was created by the user Honoluludesktop and posted on the SketchUcation forum. To download the .DXFin plugin and learn more, click here.
