I am new to this whole cnc thing, so forgive me if this is s basic question.

I have created a design I want to cut out using DraftSight, and saved it as a DXF. However when I try to open the file in pycam it gives me an error "no supported elements found in dxf file". I am not sure what this means? Is there a problem with my file or is pycam not running correctly? I can open the test dxf file that came with the install.

Any advice would be helpful. Thank you
