Convert image files with our easy to use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a TGA (Truevision TGA) file and from this, create a new image saved in the DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) format that you can then download and edit/use within image file editors or use for high definition printing applications.
Here are 2 simple steps to convert your TGA to DXF.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your TGA file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the TGA to DXF conversion has completed, you can download your DXF file straight away.
We aim to process all TGA 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 being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the TGA file you submit to us. The resulting DXF file, once created is deleted 1 hour after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
Yes! Our TGA 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.

The TGA format was originally defined in 1984 by AT&T EPICenter and later became Truevision following a successful buyout. The format is a raster graphics format for use originally with high-end PC graphics cards intended for use in video editing with the format mainly supporting NTSC and PAL video resolutions.
The format stores images in various levels of color depth starting at 2-bits-per-pixel (bpp) all the way to 32-bit where color would occupy 24-bits with the final 8-bits dedicated to the alpha channel. The format of the file is fairly simple compared to other formats of the time such as BMP and TIFF.
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.
