Hi Nadine,
As you noticed, the OpenJUMP DXF driver has some limitations.
However, some of the features you mentionned should work :
DXF TEXT should be imported, but entities are translated into simple
points with the text as attribute.
DXF POLYLINE are translated as Linestring or Polygons depending on the
"close" dxf attribute
I don't know what are polygons and areas in DXF, but 3DFACE are ignored
by the parser.
I have not tested the driver with every dxf file versions, but it should
work with most dxf versions, as it simply ignore unknown tags.
The driver uses a lot of memory (dxf is verbose and the driver is not
optimized to process verbose files). You should be able to import more
data if you can divide your large dataset into smaller ones or to
increase the max memory allocated to your JVM if you have enough
physical memory (ex. java -Xmx1000Mo) . Otherwise...

Hello
my name is Nadine, i study in Germany, Hamburg HCU Geomatik. My Tutor is Mr.
Dallüge. I will write my diploma thesis about free and bought software, my
example is the difference between Openjump and small world. My problem is the
dxf file. Openjump can not read a big dxf file. Openjump had only read one
little dxf file, but you can see only lines and points, no text, no symbols, no
polygons, no areas. What can i do? I need this plugin absolutly. Can you help
me? Who has written this plugin? I have read, openjump can already import dxf
file if the file is younger then Autocad 2004, is this right?
Thanks
Nadine Buller
