Frequently Asked Questions
Are my files uploaded?
No. Conversion runs locally in your browser. Your DXF, SVG, HPGL or HPGL/2 file is not uploaded.
Which conversions are supported?
The converter is designed for common browser-only conversions between SVG, DXF, HPGL and HPGL/2, depending on the selected tool.
What kind of drawings work best?
Simple 2D vector drawings work best: outlines, line art, cutting paths, pen plots and technical sketches. Very complex CAD drawings may need cleanup in CAD software first.
Can I control scale and placement?
Yes. The converter can provide options such as units, scale, page size, fit to page, center drawing, origin and Y-axis flipping where relevant.
