Can Draftsight recognize exploded text after being saved as a dxf from solid works?

Our Solid Works designers use TTF characters, then save as dxf for me to use to make a laser marking program in LaserCad.  Problem:  They're no longer text and not affected by windows font smoothing.  Therefore, circular features are jagged, and many are no longer arcs, but are small connected lines instead - not good for laser etch marking.  How can this problem be solved?
