How to Use
Upload DXF
Upload your .dxf drawing file.
Set scale target
Enter the intended output unit (mm or inches) and the DXF drawing scale (e.g. 1:100).
Download scaled SVG
Download an SVG where dimensions match the real-world specifications.
DXF to SVG with Accurate Scale
When converting DXF to SVG, naive converters often ignore units, producing an SVG that looks right on screen but has no correct physical dimensions. This tool gives you control over the output scale, specifying the DXF drawing unit (mm or inches) and the desired SVG output size, so the resulting file is suitable for technical documentation, printing, or embedding in web pages where real dimensions matter.
Real-World Examples & Use Cases
Technical Documentation
Convert CAD drawings to SVG for inclusion in PDF or HTML technical manuals at the correct scale.
