Good to know

  • DWG files can’t be opened in the browser with open-source tools — export them to DXF from your CAD program.

  • Binary DXF isn’t supported; save as ASCII DXF.

  • Hatches, 3D solids and embedded images aren’t drawn — the tool lists anything it skipped.

Questions

Is the PDF to scale?

The drawing is fitted to an A4 page (landscape or portrait). Lines stay vectors, so it stays sharp at any zoom.

Why are some lines black when they’re white in AutoCAD?

White (colour 7) is drawn in a dark ink so it shows on a white page, just as CAD programs print it.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is opened and processed by your browser on your own device — nothing is sent to a server, logged or stored. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool keeps working.
