Adobe Illustrator
Illustrator files import just fine but show all layers at once.
Unknown:
- Are patterns from Illustrator displayed correctly?
- Do clipping masks work?
SVG
Does not work
EPS
Often don't work.
DXF (CAD)
Are scaled wrong. Possible that RDWorks does not check the unit type and chooses a default, likely in mm. Possibly if we figure out which unit is being used we can set the files to that prior to import. We can also figure out a table with the percentage scale needed to adjust.
From https://www.autodesk.com/techpubs/autocad/acad2000/dxf/header_section_group_codes_dxf_02.htm:
Default drawing units for AutoCAD DesignCenter blocks:
0 = Unitless; 1 = Inches; 2 = Feet; 3 = Miles; 4 = Millimeters; 5 = Centimeters; 6 = Meters; 7 = Kilometers; 8 = Microinches; 9 = Mils; 10 = Yards; 11 = Angstroms; 12 = Nanometers; 13 = Microns; 14 = Decimeters; 15 = Decameters; 16 = Hectometers; 17 = Gigameters; 18 = Astronomical units; 19 = Light years; 20 = Parsecs
