Hello Bob, Reading the dxf file in Inkscape (ver. 1.4.4 in my case) , save it as *.svg *and then you can import the shape in openscad. Not a structural solutions but it works I think.

To expand on Hilbrand's answer, another tool in this space is LibreCAD, which has a specific File | Export option for SVG files. William

Also, is the original file a 2D DXF or 3D? Inkscape can only produce 2D (if I am not mistaken), but if you generated a 3D part in another CAD, then it could be 3D. As a note, years ago I got some 2D DXF files read into OpenSCAD, which worked moderately well. Once of the reasons that I wrote the color export stuff for PythonSCAD was that it simply did not work for SVG properly. My needs there were very specific (shortening the tool path for laser cut parts). I have no idea what your intent is with your XDF/SVG files.
