Create DXF files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a CDR (Corel Draw) file and convert this file to a DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) file that you can then download and edit or use within your applications.
To get started, click the Upload button above and select the CDR file you wish to convert. You may select up to 200 files at a time, and our CDR to DXF tool will batch convert them in a single operation.

CDR is a native file format used by CorelDRAW, created in 1989. It is a vector graphics format that started life on Windows 2 and has evolved over the years to support newer features. It is still as popular as ever.
These files are binary in format and usually represent a group of assets in a zip format (while retaining the CDR file extension). CorelDRAW is still being developed today and is the primary program for working with CDR files.

The DXF file format was first introduced in 1982 as part of Autodesk's AutoCAD software. DXF files were intended at the time to allow data interchange between AutoCAD and other CAD-related applications. The format has evolved over the years, with the most recent version coming in 2007.
DXF files can contain either text or binary content describing blocks, entities, objects, and other information using a "tagging" system. The DXF format is still popular today and can be opened with most popular CAD applications.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your CDR file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the CDR to DXF conversion has completed, you can download your DXF file straight away.
We aim to process all CDR to DXF conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the CDR file you submit to us. The resulting DXF file, once created, is stored for 4 hours after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your CDR file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted DXF file quickly.
Yes! Our CDR to DXF tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our CDR conversion tool please consider white-listing our website. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits and some settings may not be available when using our tools. Processing/conversion and download times will also be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your CDR to DXF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
