IGES to DXF
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to IGES and DXF interoperability and exchange that could help you with the IGES to DXF conversion.
- Import and export STL, OBJ, 3DS, PLY, 3DM, SKP, IGES and STEP files
- Convert 3D mesh files in the batch mode
- Autoconverter
IGES File
IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is the initial file format for the data exchange between different systems e.g. CAD, CAM or CAE. As the geometry data are stored in a text file format, you will get bigger file sizes when exporting triangular meshes with thousands of faces using Autoconverter software. The IGES file format supports color per assembly, but without the alpha component, therefore any transparency setting will be lost in the IGES file.
DXF AutoCAD File
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is an ASCII file format developed and maintained up until now by the Autodesk company to exchange DWG drawing data between AutoCAD and the other programs as the native DWG file format is proprietary and requires a license to use. Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application software allow you to convert 3D meshes to a set of DXF faces placed in the colored layers which you can process further with your DWG editor.
