This software utility lets you convert the web based drawing format drawings into standard DWG or DXF formats.
DWF to DWG Converter allows you to convert DWF (Design Web Format) files to AutoCAD DWG and DXF file formats. DWF is the web based drawing publishing format introduced by the Autodesk. This vector based format makes the publishing of drawings on the web easy. But then, you need to update the drawings and it makes sense if you can start with what’s on the website and start from there. To do that, you will need to get the web drawings converted to the standard DWG or DXF formats. This utility will let you do either quite easily. The tool makes it very easy to recover all the drawing elements quite quickly and easily.
The tool supports all the entity types in AutoCAD such as arcs, elliptical arcs, ellipses, true type fonts, etc. DWF multi-page specifications are supported. The tool will render entire DWF pages. When converting, it will restore layers of DWF. Embedded images are extracted quite easily. The program is a batch processor so that you can process multiple drawings at a time. The interface is quite intuitive and simple to use. You have to make a choice as to the output formats you need, DWG or DXF. The interface is well laid out, making it easy to use; even a complete beginner should be able to start using it quickly. When creating a batch, you could select a folder and check if you want the sub folders also to be included. This is a good product, has useful features and could be handy in creating DWG/DXF out of those web drawings.
