What you’re converting

DXF and PDF, in context.

DXF

What is DXF?

DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is Autodesk's open-standard text-based CAD format. Unlike DWG, it's human-readable and designed for interchange between different CAD systems. It's the preferred format for moving drawings between tools like AutoCAD, LibreCAD, and FreeCAD.

PDF

Why convert to PDF?

PDF works everywhere — clients, regulators, contractors don't need CAD software to open one. It's the standard format for tender submissions and the long-term archive format that doesn't depend on specific CAD versions.

When to use it

Three reasons to convert DXF to PDF.

01

Civil engineering submissions

Infrastructure and civils tenders often involve DXF files (CESMM4-mapped drawings, survey data). PDF is what the submission system actually accepts.

02

Cross-platform sharing

Your subcontractor uses FreeCAD, not AutoCAD. A DXF → PDF conversion removes the software question entirely.

03

Print a schedule

Schedules and attributed blocks (door/window schedules, part lists) render cleanly to PDF as tables — ready for the site pack or the contracts file.

How it works

Three steps, nothing to install.

01 · UPLOAD

Drag in your file

Your DXF file, up to 100MB. No account required for the first 10 conversions per day.

02 · CONVERT

Trusted engine, ~5–15s

We run DXF → PDF through the same pipeline we use for BoQ extraction. Nothing lossy, nothing skipped.

03 · DOWNLOAD

Save or keep going

Download your PDF — or continue to BoQ extraction on the same drawing.

DXFPDF specifics

Questions about this conversion.

Broader questions on the FAQ page →

01

Does it handle attributed blocks and schedules?

Yes. Block attributes (e.g. door widths, window types) are rendered into the PDF exactly as they appear in the DXF, including table layouts.

02

What's the file size limit?

100MB per DXF file. Most DXF files are smaller than DWG equivalents because they're text-based.

03

What DXF versions are supported?

R12 through AutoCAD 2024. If you have an older DXF, most CAD tools can upgrade it before upload.

04

Can I do the reverse — PDF back to DXF?

Yes, if the PDF is vector-based (not scanned). See our PDF → DXF converter.

or, do more than convert

Already converting? Go one step further — get a structured BoQ.

Finorly takes the same drawing and extracts a full BoQ — mapped to NRM2, POMI, CESMM4, or SMM7. About 30 seconds instead of 4–8 hours.

Why is this free?

Because you’re already doing this conversion somewhere. We’d rather you do it here, see the speed, and decide whether our BoQ extraction is worth paying for.
