Do you mean you had the exact same problem that curves were transferred but just snapping onto those curves was not working how you needed it?

Or was there a problem actually transferring the curves over? If so then that's a different problem.

Some programs will not read "SPLINE" type entities from DXF files, if you run into a program like that, you can change the option in MoI at export time to export curves as Polylines rather than as spline curves, it's the option here:



When you set that you should then get things to go through, but the curves will be converted into a polyline made up of a bunch of line segments instead of staying as a true smooth curve. That's fairly likely to be what happened anyway when you imported and exported from CoralCad.
