The TIO system is at least three years old, one known bug in the DXF import is that the DXF files need to have Amiga-style line endings. From a Mac, the ends of lines have only CR (carriage return) while Amiga files need only LF (line feed). (DOS files have CR and LF, just to complicate things.) So, run the DXF through a text filter that turns the CRs to LFs. You can do this in some word processors, too. Or, get InterChange Plus v3.0, which has a DXF converter that's more advanced than TIO, and handles Mac, DOS and Amiga-style line endings without trouble.
