The community has the following notes:
- it may help to use the OVERKILL command to eliminate any overlapping or intersecting paths before exporting from AUTOCAD
- if lines have different elevations, use FLATTEN [17]
- PLINES are intrinsically joined, and should be used where appropriate [18]
- AutoCAD 2000 DXF format (model geometry only, base model scaling) export from the desired face (not isometric view)
- 2004 Lines

Textures in Autodesk Fusion 360 seem not to work.[19]
It is also possible to fix a DXF by opening it in a program which parses it correctly, then saving out in SVG format which has a stricter definition, and fewer ambiguities on import.
One technique for this is:
- open in LibreCAD
- export as MakerCAM SVG
- adjust as needed in Inkscape or some other vector editor
- save out as SVG from Inkscape
