"Import detected no valid elements in the file's paper space. Do you want to import from the model space?

[thomasmerrittgibson397439]

I am trying to link the millwork for a project which was drawn in autoCad architecture 2013 and link that file directly to a sheet in revit 2013. I have everything drawn in model space and the layout in paper space as I normally would. However when I go to link the autocad file i get this error message "Import detected no valid elements in the file's paper space. Do you want to import from the model space?"

I have read that other people are having this issue and none of the other solutions (clicking yes, saving to 2010 or lower, saving as FBX, ...) are working for me. I have also tried making a new file and re-drawn all elements, and I am still getting the same error message.

Any solutions or work arounds for this problem would be great!
