Success.

I spent yesterday trying to troubleshoot the problem behind why a vendor could not work with my QCAD/LibreCAD 1.2.0-1.1 DXF 2000 and DXF R12 files.   I have also had this problem with previous versions of QCAD.

This morning I built Version: master SCM Revision: 2.0.0alpha4-7-gb396762 on my Fedora 16 box.

I opened the same file that the vendor had issues with using the Alpha build and saved files in R14, 2007, 2004 and 2000 formats.  

I sent all the files to the vendor who uses ACAD and a proprietary DXF/DWG quoting tool.  

Both tools opened all the files and worked with them without any trouble.

I am very happy that LibreCAD solved this problem for me.

Thank you.
