DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) File
The DXF file format (Drawing Exchange Format), developed by Autodesk in 1982, is a universal standard for sharing CAD data across platforms. Designed as a vendor-neutral alternative to DWG, DXF files preserve essential design elements - such as 2D/3D geometry, layers, text annotations, and metadata - ensuring seamless collaboration between AutoCAD and a wide range of CAD, CAM, and GIS applications.
Key Features of DXF Files
- Open Standard: Originally created to allow open access to CAD data, the DXF format is available in both ASCII and binary versions for easy interoperability and editing.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: DXF is widely supported by major CAD programs like AutoCAD, SolidWorks, BricsCAD, and more, facilitating efficient project sharing and workflow integration.
- Text-Based Format: The ASCII DXF format uses a readable text syntax, making it simple to view, edit, and debug using standard text editors.
- DWG Exchange: DXF acts as a critical bridge for exchanging DWG drawing data without requiring proprietary software, ensuring broader accessibility and collaboration across different design platforms.
Convert DXF Files Quickly and Easily
Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application make it easy to import, export, and convert DXF files into a variety of other CAD and 3D file formats. Convert 3D mesh models into DXF files composed of colored face layers, allowing you to efficiently process and edit designs within your preferred DWG-compatible editor.

SAT File - Standard ACIS Text Format (.sat)
SAT files are ASCII-based 3D modeling files created using the ACIS geometric modeling kernel, developed by Spatial. Widely used in CAD applications, SAT (Standard ACIS Text) files store exact geometry and parametric data for solid modeling. This format enables accurate data exchange between leading CAD software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and Revit.
Key Features of SAT Files
- High-Precision Geometry: Encodes accurate B-Rep (Boundary Representation) data using NURBS surfaces and curves.
- CAD Interoperability: Supports seamless cross-platform exchange between AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Rhino, Revit, and other CAD tools.
- Feature-Rich Modeling: Retains advanced design elements like fillets, lofts, extrusions, blends, and Boolean operations.
- Readable Format: Human-readable ASCII text file that simplifies debugging and version control in collaborative workflows.
Convert to and from SAT Files
Using our powerful Autoconverter software, you can easily convert SAT files from popular 3D formats like STEP, IGES, STL, OBJ, and more. Whether you are preparing models for precision CAD editing or transforming mesh-based data into solid geometry, our SAT converter ensures reliable, high-quality results across platforms.
