DGN Support 
Support for complex linetypes in DGN files is improved in AutoCAD 2012. Now when you import or 
export using the DGN V8 file format, complex linetypes are maintained. 
DWG Convert 
Helping make it easier to collaborate, the DWG conversion tool enables you to translate AutoCAD DWG 
files to any of the following DWG versions: Release 14, 2000, 2004, 2007, and 2010. And since you can 
convert files in batches, you can quickly bring older file libraries up to date. 
Easily access the DWG Convert tool from the Applications menu in the upper left corner of the AutoCAD 
window.
