Frequently asked questions

What is a DXF file used for?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is AutoCAD's open, text-based interchange format for 2D and simple 3D drawings — widely used for CNC, laser cutting, floor plans, and sharing drawings between CAD programs.
Are layers preserved?
Yes — DXF stores entities on named layers, and this viewer reads that layer table directly, so you can toggle individual layers on and off.
Do I need AutoCAD to open a DXF file?
No — this viewer reads the drawing entities directly and renders them in your browser.
Is my drawing uploaded anywhere?
No, the DXF file is parsed and rendered entirely client-side.
Are there limitations on complex drawings?
Very large drawings with a huge number of entities may take longer to render or, in rare cases, hit your browser's memory limits — see the on-page message if a file doesn't render.
