Drawing Exchange Format (.dxf)

DXF, or Drawing Exchange Format, is a widely-used CAD (Computer-Aided Design) file format developed by Autodesk in 1982. Its primary use is to facilitate data interoperability between various CAD software applications. DXF files represent 2D and 3D designs and contain information such as geometry, layout, and text annotations. Initially created to allow AutoCAD files to be compatible with other programs, DXF has become a standard format for sharing and archiving technical drawings in industries like engineering, architecture, and manufacturing, ensuring seamless communication and collaboration across different CAD platforms.
