To get the conversion to work the DXF model must be made up of 3DFACEs 
or meshes encapsulated in POLYLINE. Anything else is discarded. Maybe 
the DXF file you are testing does not have discrete faces or it has an 
formatting that PoseRay does not recognize. You could email me the file 
and I can take a look at it. My email is in PoseRay's manual or the 
bottom status area of the program.
