Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or PDF (Portable Document Format) model files to a standard DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple PDF files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your PDF file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a DXF file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the PDF to DXF conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

The PDF format is a widely used document format containing text, images, and other 2D content in a read-only format. The format was introduced in 1992 by Adobe as a royalty-free format and is largely based on the earlier PostScript file format, with some of its scripting features later removed.
PDF files can contain rasterized images and vector graphics, which can optionally be compressed and encrypted for successful transmission. The format has evolved over the years to include features such as layers, metadata, accessibility features, and interactive forms.

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, select your PDF file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the PDF to DXF conversion has completed, you can download your DXF file straight away.
We aim to process all PDF 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 PDF file you submit to us. The resulting DXF file, once created is deleted 20 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your PDF 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 PDF 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 PDF conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your PDF to DXF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
