Explode the blocks to improve import performance. If you import a DXF or DWG file that contains a large number of blocks (more than 200), you are prompted to enable the Explode Blocks option. When you import drawings, the most popular AutoCAD SHX or True Type fonts are supported, even though you may not have the fonts installed. Imported entities can become SolidWorks blocks. Entities in either paper space or model space are imported. In a drawing document, you can import the geometry to the drawing sheet or the drawing sheet format.
This translator also imports DXF 3D files without the wizard. The DXF/DWG translator imports DXF or DWG files, including Mechanical Desktop files, as SolidWorks part or drawing documents, according to the option settings in the DXF/DWG Import Wizard.
