AFAIK, Centroid no longer offers a DXF import option. You'll need to bring the DXF into a CAD package to get dimensions off it and then re-create that in Intercon.

Acorn never had DXF import.

Re: Transfering DXF files from AI ?
Because you posted in the Centroid Acorn forum, we are ASSUMING you have an Acorn system. You haven't provided a report so not sure what you are working with.
As Tom mentioned, Acorn never supported DXF import
For Servo, beginning in version 4.14, they stopped supporting DXF import because there became to many VARIANTS of .dxf
