Convert an Autodesk DWG or DXF formatted file to a PDF.

  • Maximum number of files: 1
  • Maximum file size: 25MB
  • Valid uploadable file types: .DWG, .DXF
Step 1: Select and Upload Files (Click or Drag-n-Drop)
Step 2: Specify Optional Variables:
Auto fit and centre drawing to paper
Auto paper orientation (landscape or portrait) based on document bounding box
Sorts blocks in natural order (alphanumberically). Layouts are sorted by tab order and exported before blocks.
Export every matching block only once
Auto center drawing on paper
Set number of paper columns (min 1, max 9)
Flatten to 2D (Z==0)
Grayscale
Landscape (default is portrait)
Set linetype scale (min 0.0001, max 9999).
Set auto zoom margin to value in pixels (min 0, max 9999)
Set minimum line weight to value in drawing units (min 1, max 9999)
Monochrome (black and white)
Set offset to X,Y in drawing units (min 0, 0 to max 9999, 9999)
Set paper size to W x H in mm or to a named paper size (e.g. "A4", "Letter", etc.)
Specify PDF version to "1.4" (default) for PDF 1.4, "1.6" for PDF 1.6, or one of "A", "A-1B" or "A1B" for PDF/A-1B
Set size of points in mm (min 0, max 9999)
Recompute dimension blocks if empty (dimensions rendered with best compatibility)
Set number of paper rows (min 1, max 9)
Set scale factor to SF (e.g. "1", "2", "0.5", "1:1", "1:5" etc. No leading zeroes before a decimal point and no trailing zeroes after a decimal point (e.g. 1.0:2.50, 04:1 are invalid values, but 1:2.5, 4:1 are valid.)
Change input data from drawing units to the given unit [in|m|mm]. Default is the drawing unit. Mainly useful for drawings with unit 'None'

Step 4: Process Files

What Does This App Do?

Transform a single computer aided design (CAD) drawing file (DWG or DXF) into a Portable Document Format (PDF) image file that can be downloaded directly from this site. There are two ways to upload files:

  • Click on the file box to open the upload dialog window.
  • Drag files across over the file box.

Time Requirements

The time required to process DWG or DXF drawings into PDF files can be anywhere from a few seconds to a few of minutes depending on the complexity of the input drawing. The more detailed or large the drawing to convert, the longer the process will take!

What Are The Limitations?

The maximum file upload size is 25MB. The input file can be either a DWG drawing file or a DXF drawing interchange file.

The following file formats are accepted:

  • DWG - An open but proprietary CAD drawing format developed by Autodesk.
  • DXF - Drawing Exchange Format, developed by Autodesk for transferring drawings between programs.

What Interpretation Engine Do You Use?

This app uses QCAD, a CentOS Linux based open source 2D design and drafting program, to open the uploaded file and to output to the image.

Is My Data Safe?

All connections between the browser and the server are encrypted using HTTPS and verified using an SSL certificate. All uploaded files undergo virus and malware scanning.

All uploads are scanned for malware and shall be automagically deleted after processing has been completed. For peace of mind, users can also manually delete the output files from the server when they're no longer required.
