DXF out the file. OR better yet, import a dxf into CorelDRAW do some cleanup and then export AI.
Remember to import using curves, not splines since DXF doesn't really support them well. |

export
yes it is easily done, just go to File-Export in AutoCad then export it as a DXF file, then open it up in modeler and save as a lightwave object.
