Horace,

A lot of applications do not produce correct/proper EPS files. That is
why I recommend a two-step operation via PDF to create an EPS file.
You may want to compare a PDF of the EPS output from AutoCad Light
with a PDF created by printing from AutoCad Light to the Distiller
printer and then creating a PDF. If the two are identical, then the
direct EPS files should be ok to use in FM.

Note: the FM option to import PDFs as graphics converts the PDF to an
EPS on-the-fly every time it is accessed anyway, so why not do it once
and take a bit of a load off your system resources?
