You can import AI files into RDWorks directly..you don’t need any other softwareMatthias Roschk wrote: Fri Jan 03, 2020 Hello,
i have nothing to open a *.ai file .. but i found the Error.
It is a "special" Font for Airplane Panles, but this one has a little error in it.
So i take another from the same Font Family and now it works fine.
Thanks for your help, it gives me the idea where i have to start searching.

Great job Pete, I couldn't open/import the dxf, so tried the rld file. It acted strangely for me until I changed the scan/cut areas to different colours then looked ok. Froze my rdworks initially.Pete Cyr wrote: Fri Jan 03, 2020 Import the attached file and try it now - you will probably have to resize it to your needs.
The issue was open vectors - I have fixed them.
i have found using rld file made with newer versions of RDWORKs trashes my version of RDWORKS and I have to uninstall and reload. So i don't open other peoples rdl files anymore...ever.Ian Bell wrote: Sat Jan 04, 2020Great job Pete, I couldn't open/import the dxf, so tried the rld file.

v8.01.18 - -I have no need to upgrade. Upgrading RDWORKS is like putting lipstick on a pig - when you are done it is still just pig and you have wasted some time - -it may look better as beauty is in the eye of the beholder (but all I see is a pig).Matthias Roschk wrote: Sat Jan 04, 2020 What version of RD Works are you using?
Yes, i have imported the *.ai file. It was in the wrong size, but it works fine.
