There are three supported formats used by AutoCAD:


Note: Throughout this chapter, the AutoCAD file is referred to as a drawing file rather than a DWF file. This chapter assumes familiarity with AutoCAD-compatible systems and the entities (features) that are manipulated within these systems. When AutoCAD data is output, header information may be copied from a supplied template, or prototype, file. FME also provides support for reading and writing AutoCAD DWF files up to and including version 6.0. AutoCAD drawing files consist of drawing settings and configuration, as well as a series of entities, or graphic elements, organized into layers.įME provides broad support for many AutoCAD entity types and options and for reading and writing AutoCAD DWG and DXF files with versions up to and including 2010.

The AutoCAD ® DWF Reader/Writer enables FME to read and write files used by Autodesk ® AutoCAD and compatible systems.
