Check also the rotation of the `Y axis` with respect to the `True North`: it is typical to orient the drawings most conveniently for drafting purposes, unrespectful of True North. Please note that positive angles (from Y axis to True North) are counter clockwise.
Try to upload files with few entities at the building scale, as the conversion may be unaccurate for small items (units must me in meters).
Add a `Title` and a short description (if you are authenticated you can als add and check the drawing as `Private` to prevent other users from viewing it).
Press the `Save` button. If all goes well the `DXF file` will be extracted and a list of `Layers` will be attached to your drawing. Each layer inherits the `Name` and color originally assigned in CAD. `ARC`, `CIRCLE`, `LINE` and `LWPOLYLINE` entities are visible on the map panel, where they inherit layer color. If unnested `BLOCKS` are present in the drawing, they will be extracted and inserted on respective layer.

## Downloading
In `Drawing Detail` view it is possible to download back the (eventually modified) `DXF file`. Some limitations apply: `ARC` and `CIRCLE` entities will be approximated to `LWPOLYLINES`, `Layers` will have `True Colors` instead of `ACI Colors` and entities in blocks will all belong to layer `0`. On the other hand, `GeoData` will be associated to the `DXF`, so if you upload the file again, it will be automatically located on the map.
