Although the software "Ulitimate Unwrap3d"  specializes in UV mapping, I use
it all the time for converting alien (my home is the planet POV-RAY, 2 suns
& 3 moons sources and a hell of a landscape) formats to mesh2 macros. The
link is,

Personally I use Pro-E so I've never imported AutoCad dxf files but I'd be
suprised if it didn't convert it correctly.

To save to POV-RAY will probably cost you under $30.00
If this is a concern e-mail me your dxf file and I'll e-mail you the
mesh2 macro to see if it accomadates you.
Good Luck
Tony
