Frequently Asked Questions

DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is Autodesk's open CAD data format. Created in 1982, it remains the standard for exchanging drawings between different CAD programs like AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and FreeCAD.

The viewer supports ASCII DXF files from R12 through R2018. Binary DXF files are not supported. Most CAD software exports ASCII DXF by default.

Lines, circles, arcs, polylines, text, dimensions, blocks, and splines. Complex entities like 3D solids may show as wireframes only.

Yes. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your CAD files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy for proprietary designs.

DXF is an open format readable without proprietary software. DWG is Autodesk's native binary format requiring licensed viewers. DXF ensures broader compatibility.

The viewer shows coordinates and supports zoom/pan for inspection. For precise measurements, export coordinates or use dedicated CAD software.

Use mouse wheel to zoom, click and drag to pan. Layer visibility can be toggled. Press Home to fit the entire drawing in view.

The viewer handles typical engineering drawings well. Very large files (50MB+) may be slow. For massive assemblies, consider desktop software.

You can export the current view as SVG or PNG. The full DXF structure is preserved in JSON format for programmatic access.

Some advanced AutoCAD features (proxy entities, custom objects) may not display. Standard 2D geometry should render correctly.
