Convert DWG, DXF and DWF
Format conversions: what the viewer exports itself (PDF, PNG, SVG) and honest guides for the rest.

Convert DWF to DWG: what really worksTo convert DWF to DWG you can attach the DWF in AutoCAD and trace it, or run a third-party converter that rebuilds geometry from the published sheet; neither returns the original drawing, and the best fix is to ask for the DWG it was published from.Convert DWG to JPG onlineDrop the DWG file below, click Export, then PNG, and save the result as JPG in any image app; the viewer writes a lossless PNG of the area you select, 3000 pixels on the longest side, and leaves the lossy compression step to you, so you control the quality.Convert DWG to PDF onlineDrop the DWG file below, click Export, then PDF, and you get a vector PDF of the drawing: lines stay lines, not pixels, so the page zooms without blur.Convert DWG to PNG onlineDrop the DWG file below, click Export, then PNG, and the drawing is rasterized from its vector geometry into a lossless PNG, 3000 pixels on the longest side, on a white background.Convert DWG to SVG onlineDrop the DWG file below, click Export, then SVG, and the whole drawing is written as a scalable vector graphic: every line, arc, and polyline becomes an SVG path you can scale, style, and edit in Inkscape or a browser.Convert DXF file to SVG onlineDrop the DXF file below, click Export, then SVG, and the whole drawing is saved as a scalable vector graphic you can open in Inkscape, a browser, or a laser-cutter app.Convert DXF to PDF onlineDrop the DXF file below, click Export, then PDF, and the drawing is saved as a vector PDF on a white page sized to the area you select, with every line, arc, and dimension as drawn.Convert DXF to image (PNG) onlineDrop the DXF file below, click Export, then PNG, and the drawing is rendered into a PNG image that opens anywhere: 3000 pixels on the longest side, layer colors on a white background.Convert PDF to DWG: what actually worksYou can convert PDF to DWG, but the right method depends on whether the PDF is vector or a scan, and this site does not do it: dwgviewer.app opens DWG and DXF files in the browser and never writes a .dwg.Convert PDF to DXFPDF to DXF is the shortest path from a PDF drawing to an editable CAD file, because DXF is an open text format that free tools can write directly.Convert STP to DWG (STEP to DWG)To convert STP to DWG (STEP to DWG) you need a 3D CAD program, because a STP file holds solid models and a DWG can hold either those solids or 2D views drawn from them.DWF to PDF: how to convert a DWF file to PDFThe most reliable way to convert DWF to PDF is to open the DWF in the free Autodesk Design Review and print it to a PDF printer.DWG to DGN converter: how to convert DWG to MicroStation DGNThe DWG to DGN converter most people already have is AutoCAD's DGNEXPORT command, and the most faithful one is MicroStation itself, which opens DWG and saves DGN.DWG to DXF: how to convert, free and in batchThe fastest DWG to DXF converter you already have is the CAD program the DWG came from, and the fastest free one is ODA File Converter.DWG to STL: convert an AutoCAD drawing for 3D printingDWG to STL works in one step when the DWG contains 3D solids (AutoCAD's STLOUT command does it), and takes some modeling first when the DWG is a flat 2D drawing, which most are.DXF to DWG: how to convert a DXF file to DWGDXF to DWG needs a program that can write the DWG format, and only a handful can: AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ODA File Converter, and (partly) LibreDWG.Image to DXF: convert a PNG into a DXF fileImage to DXF conversion is tracing: the pixels of a PNG are turned into vector paths, and those paths are saved as a DXF that laser cutters, CNC routers, and CAD programs can read.Inkscape SVG to DXF: convert SVG files to DXF freeInkscape SVG to DXF export is the standard free way to turn SVG artwork into a DXF for laser cutters, CNC routers, vinyl cutters, and CAD, and this page gives the exact settings that avoid the usual scale and curve problems.JPG to DWG: how to get a JPEG into AutoCADJPG to DWG is possible in two ways: attach the JPEG in AutoCAD and draw over it, or trace it automatically into vectors, and this viewer does neither, it displays DWG and DXF files and never writes a DWG.PNG to DWG: how to turn an image into a CAD drawingA PNG to DWG conversion means tracing pixels into lines, because a PNG holds no geometry and a DWG holds nothing else.SVG to DWG: how to convert an SVG into AutoCADSVG to DWG is a clean vector-to-vector conversion, no tracing needed, and the free route is Inkscape to DXF followed by DXF to DWG.
