dxf files

Hi everyone, Is there a way to import dxf files made by another program (Coreldraw)? When I import to Carrara it shows up in the instances but it doesn't show up in the model room. Also the size is totally wonky. For instance -4987743.00  2897222.00   2972222.00. I can export a Carrara object as a dxf and then import it and it works fine. If I modify it in Coreldraw it will come back into Carrara all wonked out as stated above. I believe I have tried all of the different import parameters to no avail. Using Carrara 8.5 Pro and Coreldraw 2020...Thanks for any help.

    A first guess is the scale at import, maybe 1mm in Corel is 1 meter or foot in Carrara. Or the reverse... A second guess is to try the latest Hexagon beta for DXF import to Carrara export.

    I figured out a work-around.
