Frequently Asked Questions

Which AutoCAD formats are supported?

We support DWF, DWFX, DWG, and DXF formats from all AutoCAD versions, including files with multiple layouts and external references.

Will layers and annotations be preserved?

Yes, all layers, dimensions, text annotations, and line properties are maintained in the PDF conversion.

Can I convert multiple layouts?

You can choose to convert either the Model space or a Layout from your DWG file. The "Layout" option in conversion settings determines which space is converted to PDF. Choose "Model" for a quick export, with no plotting setup required. Choose "Layout" for accurate, print-ready PDF documents.

Can I batch convert files?

Absolutely! Upload multiple CAD files or ZIP archives containing up to 50 drawings for bulk conversion.

What does the setting "Page Size" do?

This determines the PDF page dimensions, which is relevant for printing. Options range from "letter" and "legal" to standard A0-A4 formats.

What does the setting "Include All Layers" do?

When enabled, all visible layers from your CAD drawing are included in the PDF output. When disabled, only the currently visible layers are exported. This gives you control over which drawing layers appear in the final PDF.
