Erich,

There are a few programs out there that come to mind and may help.

http://librecad.org/cms/home.html

Librecad reads dxf files natively and outputs a limited number of 
formats.  One of which may help get you there, even if you have to 
filter one of those formats to yet a third format.  If you can get it 
into librecad, you may be able to edit it with librecad to get it into a 
format that dxf2pcb can import.

http://www.pstoedit.net/

pstoedit does conversion from Postscript and pdf to many formats, dxf is 
one of them.  It also has a lot of filtering arguments to massage the 
drawing, such as rotation, scaling, etc.

I successfully used pstoedt to take a pcb postscript assembly view file 
and convert it to dxf to import into a librecad assembly drawing of my 
format.  That worked fine.

HTH.

Girvin Herr
