DXF to Britfair

The DXF to Britfair application is designed to convert 3D DXF data into britfair and associated files suitable for import into Lines.

Its main purpose is to identify section curves and produce a Britfair file. It does this by collecting together all POLYLINES, LINES or LWPOLYLINES which are defined in an x-plane. Each set of points with a common x value is sorted and output as one Britfair section.

All other curves that can be identified are written to separate files called CCnnnn.3d. The points in these files are formatted as 3 column (x,y,z) data and can be input into Lines to create Plines, Knuckles or Tangents.

DXF files from AutoCad version 12 are supported. Files from later versions should first be converted to version 12 for best result.
