    Heather,

    I reproduced the problem on my PC.

    I opened your DXF file in Notepad and realized that $ACADVER=AC1009. This is AutoCAD Release 11,12 format, i.e. very old format.

    I opened your DXF file in Creo Parametric 2.0 as drawing and reexported it in AutoCAD Release 2007 format. This file can be opened in Isodraw.

    So ... it looks like Isodraw does not understand old AutoCAD format ...
