The format was originally referred to as the Drawing Web Format, since DWF files were generated by the Autodesk Internet Publishing Kit. As the format grew in use beyond just AutoCAD, it was renamed to Design Web Format. Although originally a 2D-only format, DWF has evolved to include 3D. Today DWF files are generated by all Autodesk products.
DWG (from drawing) is a proprietary [3] binary file format used for storing two- and three- dimensional design data and metadata.It is the native format for several CAD packages including DraftSight, AutoCAD, ZWCAD, IntelliCAD (and its variants), Caddie and Open Design Alliance compliant applications.
AutoCAD's native file formats are denoted either by a .dwg, .dwt, .dws, or .dxf filename extension. .dwg and, to a lesser extent, .dxf, have become de facto, if proprietary, standards for CAD data interoperability, particularly for 2D drawing exchange. [31] The primary file format for 2D and 3D drawing files created with AutoCAD is .dwg.
DXF was introduced in December 1982 as part of AutoCAD 1.0, and was intended to provide an exact representation of the data in the AutoCAD native file format, DWG (Drawing). For many years, Autodesk did not publish specifications, making correct creation of DXF files difficult. Autodesk now publishes the incomplete [3] DXF specifications online.
FUN – A FUN file is a file that has been encrypted by Jigsaw ransomware, which is malware distributed by cybercriminals. It contains a file, such as a .JPG, .DOCX, .XLSX, .MP4, or .CSV file, that has been renamed and encrypted by the virus. GZ – gzip Compressed file; JAR – jar ZIP file with manifest for use with Java applications.
After Version 2.1, Autodesk massively changed Autosketch. It was very different in function, menu structure and used a different file format. It is unclear if it was a complete 32 bit rewrite by Autodesk or if they bought in a 32 bit CAD programme and renamed it AutoSketch. Older files had to be converted in order to be opened in the new ...
Other formats possibly not yet written: STEP - international standard for product data exchange (); G - BRL-CAD standard solid modeling open format including support for primitives, attributes, and arbitrary data storage
LibreCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) application for 2D design. It is free and open-source, and available for Unix/Linux, macOS, and Windows operating systems.. Most of the interface and handle concepts are analogous to AutoCAD, making it easier to use for users with experience in this type of commercial CAD application.
