Remarks

AutoCAD has an unknown limit on the number of characters for the description when loading an external DXF, while, on the other hand is perfectly capable of saving a Block description that surpasses such limit.
Keep in mind that when saving a DXF prior to the AutoCad2007 version, non-ASCII characters will be encoded, therefore a single letter might consume more characters when saved into the DXF.
New line characters are not allowed.
