Unable to use DXF export

My company is in the transition to Creo from AutoCAD. On occasion we need to export a .dxf or .dwg file for use in AutoCAD. Currently we are unable to open these files with our AutoCAD. We are using AutoCAD R14, I'm sure this is why we can't open the files from Creo. I'm wondering if anyone knows a way around this.

I am not sure if Creo is the same, but we export from Wildfire 5 and have our config option "dxf_export_format" set to 14 so that we can read it into Autocad R14. We also have "dwg_export_format" set to R14 as well.
