How to do it, step by step
- Select the .dxf file.
- Click Run.
- Download the PDF and check the drawing.
When this is useful
Send a project to someone without a CAD program
The PDF opens on any device.
Attach a floor plan or part to a quote
A light PDF instead of the drawing file.
Tips for a good result
- To choose layers, colors or background before converting, use WebFaz CAD.
- If the PDF comes out blank, check that the DXF has a drawing (lines, curves or texts).
What this tool does not do
- We do not read DWG or DWT yet (AutoCAD’s native formats): in the CAD program, use Save as and choose DXF.
- The drawing goes into the PDF as a high-resolution image fitted to an A4 page; it does not stay vector or at print scale.
- All layers are drawn; there is no way to hide layers on this page.
- Not drawn: fills (hatches), inserted images and 3D solids. Dimensions and attributes may come out incomplete; the app warns which types were left out.
- Text DXF (ASCII) only. Binary DXF is not read: save again as ASCII DXF.
- Drawings with more than 100 thousand entities are rejected. Limit of 30 MB.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the drawing scale preserved?
- No. The drawing is fitted to the A4 page; the PDF is not meant for printing to scale.
- Does it accept DWG?
- Not yet. Today the conversion reads DXF; in AutoCAD, open the DWG or DWT and use Save as, choosing DXF.
- Do curves and texts come out right?
- Lines, arcs, circles, ellipses, polylines, SPLINE curves and texts are drawn. AutoCAD symbols such as %%d (degree), %%c (diameter) and %%p (±) become °, Ø and ±. Accents work in old (Windows standard) and new (UTF-8) DXF.
- Why did my PDF come out with the drawing very small?
- The PDF fits everything in the drawing to the A4 page. If there is an isolated object very far from the main drawing, the whole becomes small: delete that object in your CAD program and save again.
