x3 has two problems

1) it doesn't have a join-nodes tool to automatically connect adjacent segments

2) it only exports later dxf versions with splines

I think X4 is the same way

all other versions export earlier dxf without splines

all later versions have the join-nodes tool

there is a macro called curve works that might help, and then dxf tools might help with the dxf output
