Can a drawing created in AutoCAD be imported into SoftPlan?

Yes

Version(s): 10, 11
You may import the AutoCAD drawing as a DXF file. Prior to exporting out of AutoCAD, be sure that all blocks have been exploded, as SoftPlan will not import blocks. Proceed to export the drawing out of AutoCAD as a DXF file. From the blank drawing screen within SoftPlan, select File > Import > DXF. Move your cursor into the upper left corner of the drawing screen and select the From button. This will prompt you with the Windows Explorer menu, which will allow you to navigate to the DXF file for selection. Double click on the file you wish to import. Perform a Zoom Extent if you do not see the file initially.

Version(s): 12 +
Yes. You may import the AutoCAD drawing as a DWG or DXF file. From the blank drawing screen within SoftPlan, select File > Import > DWG/DXF. Navigate and double click on the file you wish to open. It will prompt the entities being imported/ not imported and then appear on the screen. Perform a Zoom Extent if you do not see the file initially.
