DWG File Recovery

Hi all

I'm working on SLDW 11.

In order to reconstitute a manufacturer's library, I am trying to recover the sections of the metal joinery profiles available in DWG and summarized on the attached board.

I use drafsight 2021

I save the DWG of each profile that I want to recover in previous version (AutoCAD 2000)

Solidworks refuses the manipulation.

I am forced to redraw all the profiles,

What do you think? , thank you in advance

Hello

For me in SW2019 it works.

Normally Solidworks can read dwg natively (but it doesn't like it too much as soon as there are a lot of strokes).

The best way to convert dwg / dxf files to an old version is DWG Trueview: it's totally free and made by autocad so it's really compatible with native files. You can even do batch conversion.

Quite a few warnings when opening your file with trueview. This may explain this...

In PJ the file converted to version 2004
