I am exporting drawings and/or layouts to dwg and/or dxf.

When i open them to test with AutoCAD Light 2008 the elipses are all distorted with large facets.

Help! Please. . .

One option to try, if I remember correctly
On Autocad type

viewres ->type enter
type y when it asks for "fast zooms"
20000 -> type enter

it might be that Autocad has its display resolution too low.
