Can't open downloaded .dxf files

[Buckmaster1967]

Hello,
When I download a .dxf file from here, I get error messages. Same when I try to import to Inkscape. I am using Inkscape 1.0.1. Can anyone help me here?

Sounds like maybe an incomplete install.
It says to try starting inkscape an open the file instead of clicking on the file directly.

Thanks for taking time to try to help. Had high hope. Uninstalled Inkscape, ran a cleaner, and a register cleaner. Reinstall Inscape 1.0.1. Same results.

The link says the guy had to manually delete the files. The uninstall and cleaner didn't get them.

I would Google the file name Libpoppler error and see what is going on, I would just the Google search Inkscape error Libpoppler

Thanks All. Still having issues. Tried using the DXFconverter.org link to convert dxf to svg, It does the job, and I can open it in Inkscape. But there are all these circles on the file when using the nodes tool. What am I doing wrong?

It is not you some files do not convert well, I think that has been posted here before maybe another member can convert it for you.

Let me know which file(s) you want converted, and to what format, and I will convert them for you. The jpg you attached above is too small to work with.

Thanks guys. And thanks for offering to convert the file. The file was just a test. Trying to educate myself.
