We actually have 2 different DXF import plugins, on Plugins page.
Michael's DXF plugin imports closed polylines as polygons, which is quite
useful if you want to select features, from a dxf, in their original shapes
Dante Fuster's DXF plugin imports a DXF "as it was": that means that you see
the closed polylines as polylines.
None of them import TEXT object ad TEXT but as point.Anyhow, if you see in
the attribute schema of the imported DXF, there is an attribute (called TEXT
(Michael) or _TESTO (Dante) ) where the lebel of the original TEXT object is
saved.
Using the "Change Style"-"label" option is possible to display again the text

Nadine,
Michael Michaud may be able to clarify this for us, as he wrote the
DXF plug-in for OpenJUMP. I think the problem you are having with your
import of polygons is the way AutoCAD represents "polygons". For
example, in most AutoCAD flavors a polygon is simply a closed polyline
entity. In something like AutoCAD Map there is an acutal "polygon"
entity.
I don't think the DXF plug-in for OpenJUMP recognizes closed polylines
as polygons. Hopefully someone else can confirm this.
If it does not recognize closed polylines as polygons, you maybe be
able to inport the DXF file as LineStrings and then use one of
OpenJUMP other tools to convert them to polygons.
