How it works

  1. 1

    Upload your PDF

    A vector PDF (exported from CAD or a drawing app), up to 50 pages and 50 MB.

  2. 2

    We extract the geometry

    Every path becomes a polyline or spline, text stays text, colours and PDF layers become DXF layers.

  3. 3

    Check and download

    Preview the drawing we built, then download the DXF.

Questions and answers

Which PDFs work?

PDFs that contain vector drawings — files exported from AutoCAD, Revit, SolidWorks, Illustrator and similar. A scanned or photographed drawing has no vectors; use our Image to DXF tool to trace it instead.

Will the text be editable?

If the PDF stores text as text, it becomes TEXT entities you can edit. Some CAD exports turn text into outlines — those stay as outlines, and we tell you when that happens.

What about scale and units?

The DXF is in millimetres at paper size (1 pt = 0.3528 mm). Scale it in your CAD program to the drawing's scale, e.g. 1:100.

Which programs open the file?

A standard DXF (AutoCAD 2010 format) that opens in AutoCAD, BricsCAD, LibreCAD, QCAD, FreeCAD, Fusion 360 and laser or CNC software.
