If you have BabaCAD freeware version (all BabaCAD versions in years 2012-2017), you can open only .dwg drawings <R2007 and dxf files.

If you need to work with all .dwg drawings (R12,R13,R2000,R2004,R2007,R2010,R2013,and now R2018), you have to purchase BabaCAD Home or Enterprise Edition (BabaCAD HE/EE 2018).

well i   was interested in your product but i couldn't even open an R7 dwg.  i started using autocad in 1983 so i'm an extremely experienced user, but im not buying anything i can't try out first.

You have almost full functional trial version free to download which is also time unlimited. You can open any dxf drawing and dwg drawings of version < R2007 and version > R12. To work with new dwg drawings (up to R2018) you have to buy commercial version. Trial version can’t open latest dwg version drawings as that feature is limited by third party dwg library which is not free. If you don’t trust but you have already tried BabaCAD, then you are the first of over 150,000 users with such complains. There is always option to buy 60 times higher priced AutoCAD.

Mathematically '< R2007' means 'less than', but not 'less or equal'. So, I said as it is. Yoi can open dwg R13, R14, R2000, R2004, R2006 in trial version. BabaCAD  Home/Enterprise licensed users can open all dwg drawings up to R2018.
