I am trying to open DXF format file in FME Desktop. But it throws error. I want to open DXF formate file in FME and migrate data into Smalworld.

Error Log:

"Creating reader for format: Autodesk AutoCAD DWG/DXF

Trying to find a DYNAMIC plugin for reader named `ACAD'

Loaded module 'ACAD' from file 'C:\\apps\\FME\\plugins/ACAD.dll'

FME API version of module 'ACAD' matches current internal version (3.7 20150407)

SOURCE_ACAD Reader: Using rich geometry.

AutoCAD Reader: Error opening file 'C:/FME WORK/Ganesh/tekirda? s?n?rlar?/tekirda? s?n?rlar?.dxf' during version check

A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details".

Is there any separate dxf specifications open in FME.

You should be open dxf with no problem, i usualy drag and drop em.

But maybe you got an adress character encoding problem? Seeing all those questionmarks...

Try moving the file up the three, like after ../Ganesh and see if it opens.
