FreeCAD and DXF Import/pt-br

Antecedentes
DXF is a proprietary CAD data format for 2D drawings that originated with AutoCAD. More details can be found on the DXF wiki page.

Introdução
Since FreeCAD version 0.18 there is a new C++ DXF importer, and since version 0.19 also a new C++ DXF exporter. These new components are installed with FreeCAD.

To use the older, legacy, DXF importer and exporter you need to install several files. These files cannot be included with FreeCAD since they use libraries published under a license that is not compatible with FreeCAD.

Automaticamente
If the files are not already installed, go to the menu and enable the option  to make FreeCAD automatically download and install them.

For FreeCAD 0.14 or older you have to install manually:

Manualmente
/home/your_user_name/.FreeCAD C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD
 * 1) Go to Yorik's Github account and download these files (on the right side you can choose "download as ZIP").
 * 2) Put the files in your macro folder.
 * 3) If you are unsure where this folder is, go to  and check the field named.
 * In Ubuntu your macro folder is normally (the folder is hidden, you may need to unhide it):
 * In Windows your macro folder is normally:

Tips and Tricks
Sometimes DXF Files don't import although they open in other CAD-Programs without problems.

 * 2) Remember that maybe now you won't have coincident endpoints. You can make them coincident with Sketcher ValidateSketch
