OK, I have experimented using ODAFileConverter and tried to generate DXF files of type binary and ASCII 2007, and R14 (also listed in the save as dropdown).
ODA manages the 2007 conversions but simply hangs on converting the R14 type so I have dropped trying it.
LibreCAD did not like the ASCII version and hung requiring a forced shutdown and restart.
The 2007 Binary seems to have imported properly as the errors are not showing and the layers and elements all appear to be listed BUT I cannot see anything! I just have a blank page.
I have zoomed out as far as I can and tried to select items on the entire screen (using the green select all function) but nothing shows. Here is the screenshot.

So no errors in bottom right for the three files I tried to open (the R14 was zero bytes so can be ignored). The other two are the same file tried twice.
All the layers are listed and information appears to have been picked up correctly but I am presented with an empty page (unless I am missing something!).
Any ideas?
