Next: DXFB, Up: Other Formats [Contents][Index]
We can write ASCII DXF files in various versions, with much more data than other free DWG libraries, but not as stable as the unfree Teigha library yet. AutoCAD ® fails to import some of our files still (~10% failure rate).
Options: --minimal (see dwg2dxf or dwgread) creates
only a short header with a ACADVER and HANDSEED element, and the
entities, without any subclass markers, reactors or handles.
Support for the different r1.x DXF format is not planned.
Reading DXF works for most objects. Converting a minimal DXF to DWG may fail, and needs some fixes.
