Hi, I am new to the forum. I know Release 14 is practically ancient history at this point and I may not be able to get help on converting files to that format from AutoCAD 2010 but would appreciate any help you could give on the matter.
I am trying to convert some simple 2D drawings to R14 from 2010 so I can plot them to a old school pen plotter. R14 was the last version to support the native ADI driver for the pen plotter. As a simple example I tried converting the line weights test file found here: http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autocad-sample-files.html
When I save the file as a R14 (R12) DXF and open the same file back in 2010 all the line weights are gone so does that version of DXF not support line weights?
When I save the 2010 file as a R14 DWG and open the R14 DWG file back in 2010 all the line weights are preserved but when I open the R14 DWG file in R14 I get a "Proxy entities" error message which I took a screen capture of in the attachment picture. Once I click okay on the error the drawing loads but the line weights are not present.
